About a week and a half ago I posted a Bad Trader notice for Andrew
Biccochi.  Today I received my winnings.  Some others who also hadn't
received their winnings received a note from his girlfriend explaining
how an illness in the family had taken him out of state where he still
is, and that she would take care of all of the winnings within the week
or so.

On one hand I feel badly because the delay was caused by something for
which under normal circumstances I would have been *completely*
sympathetic.  There simply was absolutely *no* communication (I just
received the box out of the blue after a month or so), and so I felt I
had no recourse.  On the other hand, I feel frustrated by being put into
the situation I was because I do not like lighting people up in NGs.

Anyway, I *retract* my bad trader statement against Andrew Biccochi.  He
*did* come through and I want people to know that.  I just wish that it
didn't go down the way it did.  But I guess that's life.  I have no
reason to believe that, under normal circumstances, he isn't a good
trader.

The problem here is that there is an inherent weakness in the Internet process. That is how do you compensate for emergency situations? Someone could die in a traffic accident, and end up having their name dragged thru the mud on the internet, (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)
