Hello, Janis.

Tuesday April 21 2009 at 21:31, you wrote to me:

Uhm, where in my message did I EVER say that they were made up of
"ex-fidonet sysops"?

Did you even read my whole message, Janis, before you went off half-cocked
on me?  Did you?  No.  You quoted me and took it off on a tangent.

(For everyone else, Janis is the one who told me about Jeff's wanting an
apology and how she was receiving odd messages about people joining
Fidonet.  I told it as she told it to me, so if she's redacting that
through her odd assumption that I said it was "ex-fidonet
sysops", that's her problem.)

 JK> Jeff may come on strong in some ways, but you know, when someone
 JK> believes in something, it's normal to do so I think.

No, it's not, Janis.  Just because I believe that OS/2 is the rat's ass,
you don't see me out there beating people over the head in it in
inappropriate echoes.  You don't see me making snap judgements about people
and acting arrogant, pedantic and immature and invoking God's name to
promote my own agenda.

You even agreed with me on the phone the other day about this-why are you
suddenly doing an about-face on this in public?

You have taken what I said completely out of context in your message and
I'd like it if you re-read what I wrote.  In fact, I'll re-quote my entire
message if need be so you can tell me where the hell I said anything about
"ex-fidonet sysops".

I consider you a friend, but when you start mis-quoting me, taking what I
say completely out of context and then trying to chastise me in public
about it, that's where I draw the line.

Now if you want to discuss this further, let's take it to netmail.  I've
behaved in this echo for too long to get a nastygram from Ross on anything.

Later,
Sean
