BF> LOL! Good luck with that.
I have been talking to Ward about you and Winfred for a while now.
Surprised? Ward and I have been at each other for decades but you know, he
has given me some good advice and things to think about.
It's disappointing to see how you act. When I first joined Fidonet, I
really looked up to you as a beginning Pascal programmer for all of your
code in SWAG (of which I still host a mirror on my website). Then your
behavior towards others, and eventually me, made me lose all respect for
you. I felt badly for you when your wife passed away but instead, your
actions towards me have tempted me to use that against you in spite.
As I've grown older and my own health is failing fast--I am now permanently
physically disabled and cannot work; I cannot walk without wearing a pair of
20 pound prosthetic boots and a cane and most of the time I have to use a
power scooter to get around due to a rare side effect of type 2 diabetes and
I also have a blood clot in my right leg that threatens to move at any time
and could possibly kill me--I've tried to turn the other cheek with you and
others in here. But with your continued negative behavior, all it wants to
make me do is return it right back to you.
I think both you and Wilfred could be valuable assets to Fidonet still even
if we disagree on things.
However, it seems that neither of you care to do so and consider me a bad
person simply because I am keeping echoes alive. Why you focus on me when
there's others in Zone 1 doing the same thing, I'll never know.
Remember, if it wasn't for behavior like yours and Winfred, I'd have no
reason to post echo rules.
So think what you want about me but I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. I
still care about Fidonet, whether you agree with me or not.
As I said to Wilfred, I was considering backing off being a "moderator" in
the echo but I have reconsidered that.
I know that nothing I do or say will get you or Wilfred to listen to me
since neither of you have any respect for me, so I'll return the favor and
do what Ward suggested: just ignore you unless you have something to
contribute other than "piss and vinegar". I will not risk my health and
life for you or anyone else.
