I assure you that I am not just ranting on my own. Remember that LUGnet is
not a real-time forum, and that not many NELUG members are likely to be even
reading this yet. In fact, some NELUG members don't even read LUGnet.

You are right -- I am not attempting to weigh the issues. I am attempting to
explain the official position of NELUG. (See: <http://www.nelug.org/faq/>.)
I think for Shiri's sake that we will talk about this at a future meeting,
but I don't feel that it's productive to hash things out here, especially
with the general antagonism displayed by non-members.
I would encourage you to consider the things I've said in other posts, and
the points made in the FAQ on the web site.
