Anthony,

This is entirely off topic for this list and is only causing bad feelings
among our users. If you continue with this off topic aggravating discussions
I will be forced to remove you from the list.

Do you understand?

And this goes for anyone else that continues to 'fight the good fight'. This
is not the acceptable place for this discussion and if you would like to
continue it, please take it off list.

Thanks,
~Rob
