I'm telling you again, ask the NAB...

 RW>>>> Where's your proof that Nick is not the official Fidonews

 MvdV>>> Nobody questions that Björn Felten was appointed by Frank Vest

 RW>> On the contrary,

 MvdV> Nobody questions the FACT that Björn was appointed by Frank as his
 MvdV> successor.

Everyone makes mistakes, even Frank...unfortunately, he wasn't able to
correct it before he left Fidonet.

 RW>> many did question that move and just as many were against it.

 MvdV> Sure, many in Z1 did not approve of it.

Sure, many approved of it, at first.

 MvdV> They do not question the fact that it happened, they thoiught it
 MvdV> was the wrong decision.

And Bjorn proved to us all that it was the worst move by a former Editor,
ever.

 MvdV> No surprise, the Z1 powers that be do not want ant authority

The Fidonews Editor has no authority, other than over the publication that
he is supposed to find contributors for and articles to publish...Bjorn
couldn't even get that right.

 MvdV> to fall into the hands of someone not Z1 or not a puppet of Z1.

Hogwash...you're by now very well aware that there are those in Z1 who
aren't threatened by the powers that be in Z1. There's no need to be.

 MvdV> So much is clear.

How can you tell through all of that mud you're wallowing in?

 MvdV> It is as clear as glass, that from dat one, they have tried
 MvdV> to remove Björn from the position.

Bjorn did a fine job of showing his own colors in that regard. That
someone who could do something about it actually took notice shouldn't be
a surprise to you or him.

 RW>> Bjorn has been fired by a majority vote...

 MvdV> Liar, there was no vote, let alone a majority vote.

Believe what you will, I was there and know there was a vote. It may not
have been a vote like your recently held FTSC vote, but the question was
asked and the input from those who noticed was the same as a vote.

When the subject of what to do about the situation came up, there were
people who had been wall-flowers speaking up about it.

 RW>> Then shut up and quit rocking the boat.

 MvdV> I will not shut up, I will not roll over and submit.

Have it your way, I certainly won't mind pounding on your head and
shoulders over it...have you noticed that van der Sloot isn't getting
his way either?
