Since I have never been involved in one of your flame wars before
and I hope never to be involved in one again, I don't know which
newsgroups you do read.  That is why the note I posted I cross posted
to all the groups that YOU were cross posting to.  That way I could
be sure you would get it as I am pretty sure you don't read soc.motss.

You will notice that my second posting was not cross posted and was
only posted to alt.flame.

I don't understand why you say that my first posting was/is garbage.
It doesn't seem like garbage to me.  It seems like a very simple
request for you to keep this stuff out of soc.motss.  I really don't
care who started it.  Whether it was MES or someone who broke into
his/her account or you or your poltergeist or anyone.  It doesn't
really matter.  We would just like it to stay out of soc.motss.
Why can't any of you honor a simple request like that.  It is not
really asking all that much, is it?

You know, you guys are supposed to be adults.  Why don't you start
acting like adults and cut the bullshit.
