Re: [dvd-discuss] Netiquette



You are too kind... I must confess that I do not wish to compare the relative 
fascistism between Bloatus Notus administrators...the last time I tried to 
change clients, they tried to get me fired...while I am not vindictive by

them out even if it hurts list...So...I offer my apopolgies...
