About Fidonews controversy, On Fri Nov 10 2006

 GH> understanding is go ahead and distribute the snooze complete but do

SH> So let Michiel sue you or whovere else reprints.  It was a junk
SH> article which did not deserve to be distributed in the first place.

Or ignore him altogether.

 GH> is not doing his job adequately in getting content much less

SH> Why should the editor have to get content?  Why can't we send in
SH> content?  

We can the question is will he publish the article.

SH> were moderators.
 GH> I recall those two as tame compared to what is going on now.
SH> If you think they were tame, I'd hate to see the current crop.

It appears that the current crop just lay in wait for some one to either
make a typo, (which I have been known to do), use wrong grammar, or the
like whether it be that the poster is "handicapped" by the fact
that English is their second language.  You and I have been in this medium
long enough if we stop and think we can pick up the jist if not the meaning
any one is trying to get across.

 GH> attacks, which in anyone's book is unacceptable, at least mine.

SH> I agree but where is the content to discuss?  I note that Z1C has
SH> had only four or five messages since the summer and we are active
SH> here only because we live a long distance apart and need to chat.:-)

This is true.

Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.
