  Re: Keen Observers of Community...
 
(...) The use of CTOPs on JLUG is so prevalent that I found it impossible to evaluate the content without knowing what they meant.

(...) I do feel remorse (and many other emotions) about having started this thread. But that doesn't mean that I don't stand 100% behind every word I have written. I leave it to you to decipher when I am being sincere vs. when I am being sarcastic. (...) (18 years ago, 24-Nov-06, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
