What? Did I say or even hint I was gonna sue him? No.
Key-rist, talk about blowing it out of proportion. I'm just
saying that I don't want my or anyone else's time wasted by hoaxes.
I know people post bullshit to the net all the time. I also know that
some people sink to slinging personal insults when you disagree with them.
I'm just registering my opinion that I dislike any intentional
post that may cause someone to waste their time. Luigi agrees.
>That
>"waste of time" argument is complete nonsense. If you ever went sailing,

I guess the people that reprinted it in the SFBA newsletter never go sailing.
>Jay is right on. Luigi's "stories" usually have boardhead-speak in them,

You guys are speaking out of both sides of your mouth. Half the time
you are congratulating him on writing a piece so good that it got
reprinted, and other half of the time you say it is so obviously
a hoax that no one should of believed it. Which is it? Whatever.
I guess everyone has made their points. N'uf said.
