- Dear Rheal,
-
- Mutlu is a narrow spectrum net.pest. If you cannot differentiate, let
- alone understand what I stated was not in support of anything, then
- I will gladly fit your pigeonhole so far as you are concerned and we
- need not bother one another, eh?
-
- What is the difference between feeling everyone should hear your message,
- Rheal, and feeling that some subset or "chosen few" should hear your
- message?
-
- The minute you post any article, you do so because you feel some group
- should hear what you have to say. Where, in the realm, does one cross
- the boundry between a subset, as you have done in crossposting, and the
- "everyone" which seems to be "a bad thing" (tm.) ????
