Bill's somewhat acerbic response (with which I agree in sentiment) was about responsible communications. Note the difference between rights and responsibilities. Please note also that the Universe does not rotate around the US Constitution and amendments. Names are the global norm, there is meaning in their code. Random numbers have a different, much less human, inherent meaning. Does your Mother call you 793582, do your friends know you as a number. Or are you the number formerly known as a character from a George Orwell novel? Have a numeric day, Guido >From: "793582" <793582@idmail.com> >Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us >To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> >Subject: Re: [Leica] News from Belgrade >Date: Tue, 25 May 1999 23:03:19 -0700 > > >-----Original Message----- >From: William Ferris <billferris@worldnet.att.net> >To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> >Date: Tuesday, May 25, 1999 6:56 PM >Subject: Re: [Leica] News from Belgrade > > > >Dear 793582, > > > >You don't have the right to question anyone's state of mind or loyalties > >when you don't have the courage to identify yourself.
