Todd, Can you add TennLUG (Tennessee LUG) to the the United States Organizations? This will be greatly appreciated. Rich Thompson will be hosting our website as soon as it is finished. Thank you. Scott Thomas Member 718 (25 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I haven't been following this thread, so I'll have to plead ignorance. I just happened to note these couple, and threw in my two cents.

(...) Perhaps lugnet.fashion should be set up for bashing Microsoft - as it is a rather fashionable thing to do. I was reading the other day (can't remember where) that "having a go" at corperate Ammerica is a big part of US culture in general. I (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Well, this whole thread has been mostly in the wrong group (the MS bashing certainly didn't belong in lugnet.general). (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

Thanks to all who replied. I've been in the process of moving some my sets over to the private list for the past few weeks. It's frustrating because many of the messages were just downright rude, not even a signature or anything. Oh well, -chris (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

I haven't gotten any demands or requests about selling a set, but I have gotten some fairly weird requests about instructions, etc. I view it as being part and parcel with choosing to publicly display the sets you have- it's a choice you make, (...)

(...) You know what, I think you might be right. That may well be the "official signature" but I can't say for sure as I don't think it's codified somewhere easy to find. Happy to stand corrected, though, if someone knows differently. ++Lar (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
