 If I had followed the opinion of the majority, I would not still be in
 Fidonet.

 To realize change, one has to demonstrate, that it can be done.
 If a new technology or procedure has a future, it will be used.
 Telling others, what should be done or developed, does not work in technology.

 Instant opinions on someones intelligence are never productive in any
 discussion.
