Hi Guy, Agreed...but don't people know that was inappropriate? There are inappropriate people everywhere in life. "word of god" has anything to do with him leaving the LUG. He has been off the log for a LONG time now...and some mole was sending them to him (nothing inappropriate about that, not something I'd do though...). This recent "Erwin's departure" is merely from him stopping his one way newsletter mailing list. That has NOTHING to do with the LUG.
