Peter, how did you do this? Why not post that little trick to the
nets here so those of us who are ALSO bleeping tired of this debate
can choose to route this group that way when (if) it ever gets back
to discussing the NeXT technical issues and programming feats.

I also am a NeXT Campus Rep. I rely on this net, and am VERY
thankfulf or those who have helped in the past and who may
continue to do so in the future, especially those from NeXT
Inc. But really, I can only hope Ali and Avie aren't also
passing over this group becuase of the unfortunate turn our
musings have taken. Those who prefer the MAC will buy a MAC,
those who prefer to look at something different and new may
opt for NeXT...couldn't we just leave it at that?
 
...now where did I put my fire insurance policy...
