OK, that does it. I mean I didn't want to reply to any of your posts at
first, but this one FORCES me. Usually, if we just met somewhere, I'd
tell you to f**k off (Spike, Barbie, you can save your carp). But I can't
do that here. Bad luck. Have you ever thought about being a bit more
polite? Or maybe even constructive? Just because you have been on this list
some years ago doesn't meant you're God. If you have problems with other
peoples work, tell what you didn't like andgive ideas about how IYO that
could be improved. Personally attacking (I may have to remind you that Jon
Szeto *is* also on this list) someone...hell, if I has the FL you would be
unsubbed by now!
BTW, if you are so great and know how to do everything right, go and write
your own books!
