- You got kicked out? That's funny -- it's an alt.* group. Last time I
- looked, no one got "kicked out" of alt. groups, period. Maybe you could
- enlighten us and tell us who this authority is who allegedly kicked you out.
-
- (For some reason, I suspect that said authority's name won't be forthcoming,
- because you quit of your own accord -- you just want something to whine
- about, and those nasty folks who don't worship your hero, the one who's
- going to be out of a job four weeks from Wednesday, provide as good an
- excuse as any to play fast and loose with the true story of what really went
- on. Next time, if you're going to lie, put some effort into it.)
