LOL! What exactly would I not like you to know?! I have nothing to
hide (well, nothing regarding this anyway!). I look forward to your
explanation!

I never asked them to.

I barely followed it through. I got one automated response that showed
that they hadn't read my message properly (if at all). I think they
suggested I started another group or spoke to the moderator. I tried
to clarify it, but not long after that I realised that I didn't really
care about the list (see below) and never followed it up.

I believe I already am, albeit under a different name. It's tricky to
tell of course.


>You are a whiner and have shown this before and again here now.

Err.... right.. So what's worse Richard - someone having a genuine
complaint about something, or someone "whining" about that person
expressing that complaint?

So I believe, but my interest in doing so has waned massively as a
result. I had various ideas/suggestions for moving the product forward
but I just found myself not wanting to get involved. I'm a programmer
by trade and there are various things I could do - plug-ins,
interfaces etc.. but I really lost interest. I find myself doing other
projects.



>Not worth my time to continue this discussion with you.

Then why did you start?!

I notice that in saying this, you've managed to neatly avoid those
tricky questions from my last post. Still they'll not go away quietly,
here they are again:

"In what way was I being obtuse? Do you have an example of this? Is
having a different opinion considered being obtuse?"

"Yes, he did. I'd like you to state how *you* know just what messages
he moderated of mine. You can't have seen them, so *how* do you know?"

And of course, all the other points I made...
