You are half correct. I was indeed kicked off the list, as I have already mentioned to several people here, but I was not banned from ever again participating. Alexander offered me both an appeal process and an invitation to reture if I abided by his rules. I never answered his e-mails. I'm very opposed to censorship, and once I detect it, I don't like to encourage it. > ... for his ceaseless, repetitive and increasingly pointless > arguements, quickly overwhelming the list. Alexander received some 150 complaints about me, according to him, and that's why I was banned. There are about 3400 people on the list. > Disagree and he'll disagree with you endlessly, or until he has made > the final post. I take it that you disagree with me? I recognize the pattern. Your name also looks familiar to me, as does your style. Did we not interact on the Nikon list also? > A recent post to the Nikon list mentioned that Anthony was > now a part of the LUG.

I've always wondered how the other 96% of the list membership felt, assuming that it even cared. -- Anthony
