Re: Now that was frightening!

["Lance Jacobson" <lancejacob@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gang, for the record, I send NOTHING to Bird.  I do "Reply All" which will
send to all those who've mailed me or cc'd me, as you are well aware.

I have no reason to send things to Bird, I send responses to the board, and
I don't ignore his own add, from which he filters me.  Hear no evil, See no
evil.  Nice world, if you can manage it.  As a "seasoned, original,
long-time poster on this board, I'm sure he's mastered the art.

Anyway, when a guy writes to ME offline, telling me to F*** off after a
retort on the board, it's unwarranted.  This is a bulletin board; use it or
ignore it.  Don't write to me privately about your own personal issues.

Now That's net etiquette, if you're really interested.  Don't lecture me on
it again, please.
