 DR>>> Not to mention that you WERE sent NetMail on the subject:

>> geezusfrickincrimney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 DR> On THAT subject, have not you you and I had MANY exchanges on
 DR> SEVERAL different occasions about getting you a connection to
 DR> Z1B_COORD. Yes we have.

i've never denied that...

 DR> It has been YOUR decision to not make a connection even though
 DR> no less than three different hubs have offered you a connection.
 DR> Now you might not want to make a connection with me  or another
 DR> system in the Z1B because you do not like the way we run our
 DR> systems. What has kept you from contacting one of the OTHER hubs
 DR> in the Z1B and arranging a connection with them?

nothing to do with the statement, dale... stop trying to put out the flames to 
a nonexistant fire...

the points are that you guys have been telling everyone that it's 'unanimous' 
and 'all systems participated' and other such stuff when it's been a blatant 
falsehood... THAT is what folk do not like and frankly i don't like it 
either... especially when it's been me that's been out of the loop... shit, its 
all i can do to get an hour or so every day or maybe every other day just to 
read this shit and crap??? is it true that those remaining in fido are really 
trying to run off everyone else?? it sure seems like it to me... especially 
with this stuff and the blatant lies and mistruths... hell, i've even gotten to 
the place where i don't even mention my involvement with fidonet because i 
don't want to hear the garbage from those who do know anything about fidonet...

and now i've 1000+ messages to wade thru covering the last 5 months of 
Z1B_COORD... i don't even know if i want to "go there", man... but it'll take 
time and even more time before i feel confortable again... face it, as a member 
of the Z1B, i'm personally appalled at the shit that's come forth from it and 
frankly, that's why i've written the denials and made the statements that i 
have... there would not have been this problem with my connection if YOU hadn't 
kneejerked and shoved me and others out the door without so much as a 
faretheewell and then expected us to even want to come back...

i don't even know why i STILL try...
