Lines: 47 [] Steve's ramblings sound just like a sound made by a bloated horse relieving itself from it's non-eating end. To match his phrasing, it was a bunch of commie-pinko raving. He seems to like to call anything he disagrees with facist. I'm sure he would not know a fascist from a football if one goosestepped over his nose. In typical left wing fashion, he refuses to weigh the evidence. Instead, he leaps to unfounded conclusions based on nothing more than some ephereal notion of "rights". "RIGHTS? You ain't got no rights, you got privledges. If you abuse those privledges, you ain't got them either, as long as I'm paying your salary." This is essentially how it works out here in the real world. The sooner Steve finds this out, the further he will progress in the real world. It works the same way in leftist countries, but with much worse consequences for deviations. Folks better get the idea that this net is a god given right out of their heads, it ain't. If you want a free wheeling, no holds barred net, you better start one yourself. I feel sure that if the leftys did, they would immediatly bar any comment from the right. They have done this kind of thing before in the media, so why would a net be any different? In conclusion, Tim was wrong to post privledged communications to the net. Tim used poor judgement in demanding replies from his employers. I enjoyed reading Tim's postings, however, once he was enjoined from further posting, and then defied the ban, he was fair game for his employers. This was extremely poor judgement on Tim's part. If I were his employer, I would have to think twice about his ability to make good decisions. Apparently, that is just what UNC did. Finaly, Steve, calling everything you disagree with a facist plot, is just plain dumb. Why not try to see the other side of a story before jumping into the flames. If there are to be flames about this article, please move them to net.flames where we can be more verbose and vicious. T. C. Wheeler
