Hello Bill,





 >>>>> Only two people have seen it, as far as I know, and both confirm
 BM> that
 BM>> it
 >>>>> did exist.

 >>>> Who are those two people?

 EC>>> The sender says an e-mail was sent. The receiver says it was
 BM>> received. For
 EC>>> everyone OUTSIDE of Louisiana, I apologize for spelling out the
 BM>> obvious.

 LL>>> Translation: No nasty email/netmail exists, or has ever existed.

 EC>>> "College men from LSU. Went in dumb, came out dumb too." EC>-- Randy
 BM>> Newman

 EC>>> The sender says there was no "cussing" in the e-mail, but the
 EC>> receiver
 BM>> never said there WAS, so there is no disagreement between EC>the two
 BM>> accounts. Except in Lee's mind. Fill in your own punchline EC>here.

 LL>>> Ed Koon claims Tim Richardson sent him a nasty email/netmail.
 LL>>> It is on the basis of that nasty email/netmail that Ed Koon claims
 LL>>> he chose to lock out Tim Richardson from his board.

 LL>>> Tim Richardson denies the accusation.  And Ed Koon has not been
 LL>>> able to produce any proof or evidence that Tim Richardson ever sent
 LL>>> him a nasty email/netmail.

 LL>>> In other words, Ed Koon made it all up.

 BM>> Lee... explain something to me.

 LL>> Wazzat?

 BM>> Who are you that Ed needs to quantify a decision he and he alone has
 BM> the
 BM>> right to make?

 LL>> "When one person makes an accusation, check to be sure he himself
 LL>> is not the guilty one.  Sometimes it is those whose case is weak who
 LL>> make the most clamour." - Piers Anthony

 BM> Again, you're not Piers Anthony.  To get back to the original question,
why
 BM> does Ed have to quantify his actions to you?  Have you donated to support
 BM> his
 BM> system? Do you pay a portion of his electric or cable bill?

The issue is CENSORSHIP.

Availability:

  Every sysop is encouraged to make this echo available to any user,
  that's interested in reading and writing in it.

Those are the rules, according to the official editor/moderator of the
Fidonews, Björn Felten.  The rules are posted each and every month.

Ed Koon cut the feed for Tim Richardson on orders from Ross Cassell -
who is NOT the editor/moderator of the Fidonews.  Ed Koon went on to
claim that Tim Richardson had sent him a nasty email/netmail. However,
when challenged to show proof/evidence of that email/netmail, Ed Koon
was unable to do so.

As you know, Tim Richardson denies having sent Ed Koon such an
email/netmail.  In fact, Tim Richardson wrote you a message about
it, calling you a "bald-faced liar" (I posted Tim's message here,
in this echo, for all to read).

 BM>> You have ZERO input into the operation of his system.

 LL>> "Now that I have called you on your false accusation, you are using
 LL>> additional smear tactics." - George Soros

 BM> You're not George Soros either.  Again, you have zero input.

The issue is CENSORSHIP.  Do keep up.

 BM>> If you feel that heartbroken Richardson was treated unfairly, start
 BM> your
 LL>> own
 BM>> BBS and have at it.  Till then, your singing the blues is about as
 BM> useless
 BM>> as tits on a bull.

 LL>> Ed Koon made a false accusation.
 LL>> Ed Koon was not able to support or substantiate
 LL>> the claim he had made about Tim Richardson.
 LL>> Even though he had been challenged, and given
 LL>> ample time to produce such proof/evidence.

 BM> Lee, who cares? Ed is happy, Richardson is doing his thing so why are you
 BM> playing this game of Don Quixote? If you want to fight windmills, go to
the
 BM> Netherlands.

Why do you support those who choose to be censors?  Police states
work like that.  Have you ever lived in a police state?  Do you have
any idea of what that is like?  Zone 1 under the extreme authoritarian
regime of Janis K & Co is small-fry compared to real police states.
But it is censorship all the same.




 LL>> "Accusations are useless." - Dominique de Villepin

 LL>> "A trial without witnesses, when it involves a criminal accusation,
 LL>> a criminal matter, is not a true trial." - Bill McCollum

 LL>> "The definition of an extreme authoritarian is one who is willing
 LL>> blindly to assume that goverment accusations are true without any
 LL>> evidence presente or opportunity to constest those accusations."
 LL>> - Glenn Greenwald

 LL>> "Guilt has very quick ears to an accusation." - Henry Fielding

 LL>> "Off with her head!"
 LL>> - The Red Queen, from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"

 BM> All of which have nothing to do with the subject at hand.

The issue is CENSORSHIP.

"This is the biggest form of bullying ever, the paparazzi.  Printing
lies, making accusations, it's just bullying." - Mila Kunis

Have a day.
