Why should a couple of dozen people who scream because they don't get exactly what they want dictate to a list that is 700 long?
Lump me in where you feel justified. That classification and a dollar will by you a cheap cup of coffee.
If there was a vociferous return on this I would be much more responsive, but what I see is the same small group of a dozen or so bitching and bitching and bitching and bitching....(you get the point)
What is really funny is that they bitch about crypto stuff but seem completely happy to blather on endlessly about pedophiles, off-shore banking, and a whole host of other topics that are completely and uterly unrelated to "c-punks write code".
So far I have recieved no reasoned responces to these issue, a lot of opinion and emotionaly driven wailing has shown up in my box...
I wasn't going to contribute to this, but Jim is apparently impervious to reason unless _everyone_ on the list screams at him. Don't forward reams of stuff available elsewhere to the list. If you like, mention where it is; offer to send copies to those who specifically request it. Don't post it to the list. Add me to your "couple of dozen who scream". On a more personal note, digging your heels in and sobbing "I won't, I _won't_, I WON'T!" at the perfectly reasonable suggestions that have been made to you make you seem like a puerile and self-centered preadolescent.
