It looks to me like somebody saw your intentions for what they really were, not
what you might have said they were in print.  What I'm seeing here is the "They
won't give us what we want so let's disrupt the whole convention" attitude.

When I think of the number of systems that are running on older, smaller
computers that don't have the HDD space to handle all the files you could load
them up with, and the number of SysOps that would just pull the plug rather
than clear the log-jam and set the BBS up again, I can't help but wonder what
your intentions *really* are?  Are you sincerely convinced that everybody needs
IRNROUTE to the point that you would go to these lengths to remove all
opposition, or are you just being inconsiderate of these SysOps, or, in your
fit of rage toward Janis, did you even give them a thought at all?

You make one hell of a public relations agent for the Z1B, Todd.
