- As he make clear earlier, emf has not been reading long enough to
- even know the reason that things are being cross posted. Which
- is also the reason that split was voted down (when the Senate doesn't
- vote by a 2/3 majority to override a veto: its said that it was voted down).
- That is that not everyone is reading this by way of usenet. Most people
- voted against it in *courtesy* to them. Courtesy. Think about it.
-
- You know this article made me so angry that I decided that this
- rather endearing chap is correct: screw the rules. The guidelines
- are unimportant. Do what thou will shall be the whole of the law.
-
- As the first step in ignoring the "ignorant administrative slobs" I
- will forge a cancel for every article you post in the future. Enjoy
- your future silence. God knows we will.

- "Eris rules."
