Hello SHANNON!

On Tuesday October 17 2006 06:54, you wrote to me:

 ST> I didn't do that MvD.

I wrote "Shannon and his gang". Yu may not have done it yourself, but you rode
with the posse.

 ST>   I certainly know who did (now),

Really? S o tell us so tjat we can nail this snitch to the cross...

 ST> but it wasn't me --  and I wasn't aware that it was being done at the
 ST> time.

You rode with the posse and were one of the leaders in the crusade against
Björn. as such you were part responisble for creating the atmosphere that lead
up to it.

 ST> I disagreed with the premise of the act.  But, nevertheless, BJ had
 ST> violated the RTS of the agreement he had with that organization and
 ST> therefore lost the service.

Only by the US intepretation. And in any case it was nobody's business but
Björn and DynDns.

Nayway, that is not the pint. I do not argue wiith the right of DynDns to
terminate the account. It is a free service, so no commitment.

The issue is with those who repored him We have a name for people who commit
such acts: Snitch!  And no, that is not a compiment.

 ST> It wasn't "MY" Crusade MvD....

Oh you are part of it. The hate mail on your website says it all.

 ST> You are creating sides that don't exist --

You don't miss an opportunity to throw mud at Björn. A week does not pass when
you do not call for his resignation. Your hate for Björn is all too obvious.

 >> Expose him as the hypocrite he is for sending lawyers to Bj"rn over

 ST> I wasn't aware that Bj had lawyers contacting or visiting him?

You yourself reported him to some "legal entity" didn't you? SNITCH!

 ST> However, I "do" honor copyrights MvD

Only when it suits you.

 >> simply accepts that, stops the crusade, removes the hate pages from

 ST> What hate pages?

Among others: The one that you see when pushing the "read the latest issue of
FidoNet" button on your website.

 ST>   Does BJ's own words on my Fidonews site propagate hate?

Lifted out of context and twisted to say something other than was intended. By
YOU! You know that as it has been explained to you many times. Yes, that page
is a hate page, no doubt.

Well , there is this freedom of speech thing, so we just have to put up with it
I guess. But then I have every right to not want my articles next to your
bilge.


Cheers, Michiel
