What's getting my back up is that everyone assumes that since it
appeared in a mag it must be true, and then comes across with a
pompous message saying, `this is bad for the community', `please give
us a report', `please file an FIR', crap.
I don't want to hear any more about this unless you have something
more constructive to say. If you know a lawyer who can help me sue
Outlook, or give me suggestions on what recourses I have, please let
me know. If you don't, please use some other subject on your e-mail
to spout your ideas on what is good for the community and what
isn't.
I'm seething about this article as it is, please don't give me any
more grief with pointless pontifications apparently related to the
article. You can see the result already :-)
