Mistake there. I meant Bobber, not the other "person".
And he DID see it. :-)
"Lazy sissies"? An interesting way to rip someone's guts out. :-)
I had someone check GemStone's server (they don't list the groups on
their web site), and they don't have this group and the discussion
group. I asked my friend to see if he could request them, but they are
VERY slow to add groups. Their FAQ says they have to be "active" before
they will carry them, but they didn't say how active.
GemStone has posted before, with another name. I didn't begin to
suspect who he was until just after my post here about him. What tipped
me off was his phrasing, and the narrow time window in which he posted.
He told us today, at least for Doc and I, who he is. I think what
caused him to do that, and also to return to posting in the Fort, was
that I mentioned his sad situation in Doc's thread that Doc didn't see,
and he wanted Doc to see it.
As for what else GemStone is doing, well, he seems to be taking my idea
that talk is cheap and that it's actions that count, and running like
ah, heck with it. I just hope he doesn't get tackled too hard because
of it. I have a feeling that abc and the quacker will try it. :-(
Of course, it would be better if other people defended him, but I'm
afraid that the "lazy sissies" situation may cause that not to happen.
If anyone wants more background about GemStone's past posting
situation, that will have to be provided in private.
Take care,
Y Not
