(...) <snipped> Leonard --- This is going to be rather long winded -- think of it as a shotgun reply to most of what you've been saying and of your work so far. I like your site; I believe I've said it before - a few months back when you began (...) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

I know how you feel. it is kinda disapointing to post something and have only 1 or 2 responces. Here is some feedback about your creation. I like Castle Pahl, It is a cool small fortress. I absoultly love the Kyamitsu complex. I like the forest (...) (23 years ago, 7-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

Anthony I would like to chime in and de-lurk for a minute to support your statement about the whole IOM thing. I've actually stopped coming to LUGNET over the last several weeks because I'm so tired of wading through all the IOM postings. None of my (...) (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Agreed :) It is a lot easier to read than post. Let's make it a group effort to do something about it, but as we all known, apathy is very strong these days ... (...) Yes.

N.B. I have set the follow-ups to castle, not org.cw. This is because the content has impact on the structure and direction of the castle group as a whole, not just those who do (or don't) like CW. (...) Apathy? Perhaps in part. .Castle (and (...) (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)
