Bob, at 09:17 on Sun, Sep 25 1994, you wrote to Bill Grimsley ...

BL> Yes, Bill. What the fuck's happening to Rod?

BG> You should have read my message to Brenton by now, so you'll

BL> Thanks for that. I did see the other post, but our mail crossed.

Yeah, I figured you might have.  As an aside, I don't know about you, but
even after three years or more of email, I still derive some voyeuristic
form of pleasure form reading mail addressed to other people.  Maybe I
should get a job in the local post office.  ;-)

BL> What a farce! Rod was probably the most helpful of the lot of 
BL> them in the Tech echo, and they're worried about saving 
BL> bandwidth. What a crock of shit.

It was nothing more than a smokescreen over the real issue, which was Rod
putting Laurie Batt and Gabriel Lagos in their respective argumentative
places after they attacked him for what they perceived to be off-topic
messages regarding Win v OS/2.  My guess is that they slunk off with their
tails between their legs, and privately netmailed Trev in order to stir the
pot.  Some people react badly to public humiliation, it would seem.

TR> So, it's in your hands. Yes, I'm doing a Caeser

BL> And Trev is an ignorant hoon, to boot. Not only can't he spell
BL> Caesar, but he meant Pontius Pilate anyway.

ROFL!  You're right (I think), if Trev really wanted to do a Caesar, he
should have the decency to allow himself to be stabbed to death (purely in
the interests of accuracy, of course).  I doubt there'd be any shortage of
applicants for Brutus' job.  Anyway, I'd have done a Solomon myself, and
had Rod cut in half.  That way, everybody wins!  ;-)

Regards, Bill
