Hi Ross,

PS>> errrr, Ross, that sounds awfully lot like an obsession !
RC>If the day came that I had to prove to him the error of his ways, I could..
RC>Its not an obsession, the automation works. The Ftrack rule is all of 3 or
RC>so lines.

Still sounds awfully like an obsession to me :)

 RC>>> Bjorn takes the above approach and has been doing so for the past 5
 RC>>> years to the point of obsession.

bit like archiving one persons messages :)

 PS>> The interzone bashing goes back before then

RC>Sure it did, but not the nation bashing to this degree.
RC>>> He does it to the point that it is USA bashing.
PS>> There have been many comments by Z1 people bashing Europe, is
PS>> that any different ?

RC>Payback.
Wouldn't it be great to go back 10 or 15 years and find the first of
'bashing' messages, see who has thrown the most mud.

RC>Hey you asked me why I felt the way I did, I cant help if the answer is not
RC>what you expected.
actually, the answer was pretty much what I had expected.

 RC>>> He has done it so many times that the favor has been returned in
 RC>>> kind.

 PS>> Or he has returned the favour.
RC>Not hardly..

Of course you are only seeing things from your point of view, from my
point of view I have seen far more nation bashing comming from Z1 than
being directed at Z1.

RC>Who needs to have conversations with him about the topic X, when all he can
RC>talk about is his hate for the USA?

then don't, ignore any post from Bjorn that you see as U.S bashing.

But then part of the problem with doing that is it appears to be
considered defeat to not have the last word, at least by some Z1
people (and they have said as much)

RC>Look I see Bjorn as the instigator/catalyst for all this, I do not claim
RC>that anyone, including myself or even you are innocent of anything, I am
RC>guilty of dishing out reprisals however your attempt to paint Bjorn as
RC>innocent as driven snow is quite lame and unbecomming of you.

You have it wrong Ross, I do not attempt to potray Bjorn as innocent,
I attempt to show that this interzonal bashing has been going for
longer than '5 years' , Bjorn has been a high profile part of it (as
have a couple of Z1 people), but he not the instigator of it (the
instigators are most likely no longer part of fidonet)

 cya later,

 Paul
