Jack,

I know that as soon as you see a post from me your fingers get a little twitchy 
and you have to find something to attack. Just thought I'd let you know that 
your volleys were way off target.

What did I say? There are a _few_ sysops in R18. Did I say I speak for R18? No. 
My statement is not only opinion, it is fact upheld by this very thread. I am 
certain that more threads can be produced with other sysops from R18 poking 
their nose into other region's business which would further uphold my 
statement: "There are a few sysops in this region (R18) that feel like business 
in other regions is their business."

Interesting.

Did I mention you by name in my above statement?
Did I mention you by node number in my above statement?

Do you think that you are one of the "few sysops in this region (R18)" in my 
statement? Why?

Oh my. Did you sleep late today and you were still a little sleepy when you 
read my post? Perhaps you saw my name in the "FROM:" field and your blood 
pressure went up just a little and thus you didn't read what I wrote clearly? I 
do not know if you wear glasses, but if you do perhaps you left them off when 
you read my post? While I am certain what I wrote was clear, maybe I need to 
make it clear just for you? Ok, here you are.

     * I did not mention you by name in my post.
     * I did not mention you by node number in my post.
     * I did not mention you at all.

It is a well-known fact that there are sysops in this Region that like to poke 
their nose into other regions business. If that region happens to be R12 that 
is only more reason to poke away. I named no one because there is no need. 
Those individuals find ways to make themselves known without me having to pin a 
badge on them.

.... Oh Dear!  Did somebody say mattress to Mr Lambert?
