I can't stand it.  I just can't stand it.  I will post this and reretire.

I would like to take this opportunity to maximally distance the brahms gang
from Mr T J Keller.  We play hard, but we don't play stupid.  Woof.

In particular, what in the world does Adolph Hitler and Charles Manson have
to do with the net reorganization?  Answer: nothing.  Go away Mr T J.  Let
the big boys fight it out.  We do know what we're doing, OK?

In other words, Mr T J, try out for the David Letterman show someplace else.
Woof woof and a ** GONG ** to you.

Garbage.  Obviously it was mostly thought and a little bit of inertia.  Which
is why most of it came through so cleanly.

Mr T J, if you ever learn to recognize what a technical group is, please
don't subscribe to it.  My friends and I will thank you.

net.singles was obviously a case of vox populi.  We were merely using it as
backslop for comparison.  SHeesh.

You know, if I hadn't ever seen a Mr T J Keller posting before, I would have
concluded after reading this that we were dealing with a Ken Arndt gone dull.
But nooooooo.  This guy's for real.

I don't think anyone *wants* personal power over the net under any circum-
stances.

>let someone else speak to the issues?

Anyone but Mr T J, *please*.

Oh, by the way Mr T J, my friend Gene Smith and I wish thank you for taking
us off the hook of dumbest posting of the week in this group.  We got a bit
carried away, and then you came along.  Congratulations!  Woof woof GONG.

Yes, I know this is a flame and doesn't belong here.  But goddam it, does it
ever feel good.  Yehaaaaaa!

Well, back to work.
