Polite, soft-spoken people are never taken seriously. Be a loud-mouthed
arse and people pay attention to what you're saying. I guess I'm kinda like
small-scale RMS :-)
Say what you will, I have achieved my goal: the issue is being taken
seriously and will probably be resolved very soon. I'm probably not very
liked on the list as the result of my outbursts, but I think it was worth
it. Doin' it for the kids, you know ;-)
My little crusade is almost over.
Emir.
