Hello mark,

 ml>>> really??? you take this as an opportunity to wave the fidoweb dick in
 ml>>> folks' faces again??? deity, you take the cake!

 BF>> I'm surprised that you even stoop to bad language

 ml> what bad language??

You wouldn't understand.  It's a Swedish thing.

 BF>> in your contempt

 ml> what contempt??

Like I said, you wouldn't understand ...

 BF>> for the network distribution model that's been working perfectly well
 BF>> ever since ARPANET. The web.

 ml> there was no such thing as "the web" until Tim Berners-Lee created the
first
 ml> web browser...

Oh, don't be silly.  Everybody knows Al Gore invented the internet.

 BF>> But I never imagined that you should stay quiet when the mob starts
 BF>> their attack on the JamNNTPd model, considering that you yourself have
 BF>> been part of the Johan Billing project for many years.

 ml> i was part of that project, yes... i've not stayed quiet, either... i
have,
 ml> however, been busy elsewhere...

Well, get busy.  I have added the JamNNTPd echo.

 BF>> I guess you don't give a shit,

 ml> really? if i didn't i would have said anything...

Nobody gives a shit.  Except those who truly do give a shit.

 BF>> but I'm really disappointed.

 ml> that's a personal problem, i guess...

I wouldn't know.  Or want to know.

 BF>> You've come a long way since we both were involved with the FrontDoor
 BF>> project.

 ml> WOWOWOWOWOWOW! hahaha... that's too funny... much too funny... you didn't
 ml> show up in the FD project's beta area until years after i had been invited
 ml> to join... that was back when i was also a beta tester for RemoteAccess
BBS
 ml> and FastEcho...

He had other things to do.  As do we all.

 BF>> And not in a direction that benefits our network.  :(

 ml> i don't know what direction you are looking in but it is obviously not in
 ml> the same direction as myself and many others have been looking and
 ml> traveling in...

Sometimes a redirect can do you good.
