Hello Alan,

AI>I got a message from Lee Lofaso in the fidonews echo that
AI>was from a message posted in this echo. Why is that? Why is
AI>Lee reading the FN_SYSOP echo?

Because it is so much fun!  A cheap form of entertainment!
Grab your coffee, or other drink of choice, along with a giant
bowl of popcorn, or other snacks of choice, and read up!

AI>Didn't you say just a short time ago that you were an honourable
AI>man who would honour the request of the moderator of this echo?
AI>Didn't the moderator of this echo make that request, or didn't you
AI>understand that on your own?

Since there is no moderator, there is nothing to honor.  And
even if there were, only a legitimate request would be honored.
If one is an honorable man (or woman, as the case may be).

The FN_SYSOP echo is a general chat echo, open to everybody.
That includes both sysops and non-sysops alike.  We are all adults
here.  Nobody needs a nanny.  So why would you want one?  Do you
find the need to have somebody tell you what to do, how to do it,
and when to do it?  I certainly don't.  And I do not know anybody
else who does.  Except my dear friends who are intellectually
challenged.  But they are excused.

AI>I don't think any of this needs to read by Lee, or posted in
AI>fidonews.

Unlike you, I am not an elitist snob.  As such, I will read whatever
I like, even if it hurts your elitist feelings.  If you want to cry
about it, go ahead.  I am not stopping you.  Nobody else is, either.
So go ahead.  Flood the echo with your tears.  With a bit of luck,
I might drown of laughter and not be able to post any more messages.

--Lee
