    \/\/ell, I hope no one here thinks that I've "chosen sides."

    ]['ve come back and been monitoring comp.sys.apple2 and posting
 here for the first time in a couple of months because I knew when
 I saw Ernie Moore's message up on GEnie that it's sure to have been
 posted here, as well.  I wanted to come on and correct what I could
 from that "transcript" as people were sure to be asking about a lot
 of the questionable things in it.  As one of the attendees of that
 meeting, I felt a certain obligation to the Apple II community at
 large to provide what first-hand insights I could.
     _
    /-\fter seeing all this flak, though, it's not too likely that
 I'll be sticking around again for that much longer.  This newsgroup
 has proven itself consistently to be a great sinkhole full of
 negativity, flames, and prejudice.  The Apple II community should
 be doing its best, right now, to pull together and have everyone
 help each other.  Instead, here all we get is petty bickering.
 Come on, people, I'm sure you can all do better than that.
