- WHY WHY WHY??? do you chumps bother to tell us you want to leave when
- 1) we don't care since
- 2) you never posted anything and
- 3) the only person who can do anything for you is the LISTOWNER who just
- posted his address today.
-
- Curious coincidence: we didn't hear any "new ways" from you either.
-
- So you think this isn't improvised? You think we carefully planned this
- lack of "content"?
-
- Tell us what's on your mind. Post what you would like to have seen.
- You, and all your 2-bit friends.
