Right on! I'm getting pretty damned sick of these Amigoids.  If he's so
@#$@#$ unhappy with his Atari, why doesn't he hit the big 'u' next time he
comes to this group?
I think the system administrators need to have a word with this 'jdg' person
about the meaning of the word 'nettiquete'... I wonder if he ever read the
messages in 'mod.announce.newusers' (or whatever the list was called) when
he first started reading netnews.
