What I'm trying to say is that if someome posts from watson.ibm.com, and IF they are talking about OS/2, we will not accept that they are not speaking independantly of the knowledge they have garnered from watson.
I fully agree. I'm not arguing with you.
In the same way, someone who writes from Netscape.com or AT&T, or Sun and tries to disclaim that they are speaking for the company, when they step out as an employee of a company is deluding themselves.
If you meant "disclaim that they are NOT speaking for the company", then that's what I was saying too. Moreover, I think that if someone known to work for Sun posts from Netcom about Sun products, policies, and future plans, s/he'll have both higher credibility and higher responsibility to the readers than a proverbial person from the street.
