Sean,

SD>Instead of contacting me about any issues, he does this.  I wonder if Al
SD>realizes that unlike him, the rest of us have lives and treat this as a
SD>hobby?

  Or like ham radio...we think it's an obsession <G>. It's like, do you
[Sysop/Ham Radio Operator] take this [BBS/Ham Radio Rig] to be your
lawfully wedded spouse?? <G>

  Plus, the Sysop may have other things in his life outside the BBS or
ham radio right now, such as family or medical issues. Sean, I know you
and I have both, as we share the fact that we're hams and Sysops. :) By
the way, Tim Grooms is also a ham and a Sysop.

SD>Oh, I don't care if anyone hates me.  I've been doing this for the better pa
SD>of a quarter-century and people like Al here come and go like turds in a
SD>toilet. ;)

  Sort of like the truck with the business name of "Turd Burglar", and
it's motto was "I'm here to steal your $h!+". <G>

  Besides, Sean...if you're the moderator of the echo, you have the
right to say what stays and what goes. If the Sysops don't like it, they
can drop the echo from their BBS.

Daryl
