That would be akin to trying to force lurkers to post.

Fidonet is becoming more of a demagoguery with each passing day.  Not to say
that it wasn't before, but it's worse now.

I've noticed that, but didn't comment on it before recently because of obvious
implications.  If we could get all of the lurkers to post at least once a day,
that would be nice, but they aren't going to do that because of the "me v. you"
attitude which prevails today.  Some of us are at the very least congenial.

Well, he has taken up the cross against you in his latest "copyrighted"
article.

Keep on truckin'!
