I remember Alex played a role in Radius, and his Taurus development was out
of differences he had with whom he was working with regarding Radius.

I am very familiar with Alex and he was linked here for his mail, at least
the English speaking echoes.

Oh gosh no, Ward wasnt being blamed..

I remember seeing Ward posting something in ENET.SYSOP, cant remember what
it pertained to and then seeing Alex throw a fit and proclaiming his
departure.

If anything, perhaps it was merely the straw that broke the camels back, a
convenient excuse to accompany all the other reasons Alex had..

We have seen sysops throw these fits, however unreasonable their positions,
all too often.
