i am a bit disappointed at the terse tone taken here.
i don't know andy personally but i have absolutely no reason to believe that
anything "funny" has been going on here with this list. i am definitely not
the strongest technical person on this list and ,true, i was down for a few
days but my personal communications to andy were answered quickly and
professionally.
to the best of my knowledge this list maintenance is strictly a volunteer
effort and the tone used here reeks of paranoia, sounds more like someone
speaking to an indentured servant, and certainly is not called for.
wishing you all a peaceful & tranquil 1999,
ken stubbs
p.s. instead of publicly pissing and moaning you could have picked up the
phone and called someone..... believe it or not the telephone is still a
rather effective communication device.
