- This shoots down Dave Hayes' current argument.
-
- Well, Dave: what now? Are you going to come up wiht yet another lame argument,
- or are you now going to admit that the readers of rec.music.synth were
- notified - several times, including at least once with an explicit Subject:
- line saying specifically that there was a discussion to rename the group going
- on - and had a full and fair chance to participate? Even though you screwed up
- BY YOUR OWN ADMISSION and didn't post a message pointint the rename out to the
- readers of the group, SOMEONE ELSE DID!
-
- Time to give up, Dave. You've well and truly lost. Unless you wish to hurt
- those who read the group further by fragmenting it, and unless looking like a
- True Defender Of The Poor, Unknowing, and Downtrodden Real News Users - and,
- incidentally, like a complete fool - is more important than actually serving
- the users you claim to protect, you'd do well to go along with the existing
- result.
