[Tfug] Re: ISP for Qwest DSL

[Anthony Steckman]

Something I forgot to add for Michele's benefit:

You may also want to take a look at www.tfug.org/aup.html.

My opinions ARE NOT those of the Listserv managers nor do they reflect 
the opinions of the list at large.

Right or wrong, I can go on and on about anything for almost any reason 
at any time and you're not the first person I've attacked for no reason 
other than an emotional reaction to the flavor of a post.

Sometimes I know what I'm talking about, sometimes not -- as has and 
will continue to be demonstrated again and again. :-D

I said before:

Stick around and you might learn something.

I didn't necessarily say you'd learn anything from me. :-P

. I did want to note, though, that, the only SPAM I receive on any of my 
. accounts goes to an AOL address I used on their message boards.
. 
. Being a light-to-moderate Listserv and message board poster, then, it 
. has been my personal experience that while what Michele says is true 
. within the AOL environment, it is not true externally.
. 
. The one great exception to this may be with Internet newsgroups... But 
. when was the last time anyone used a real email address in their 
. newsgroup configurations?
. 
. Without trying to make this thread any more convoluted then it has 
. already become, I would also like to note that it has been a long 
. standing policy of AOL that no employees will ever represent themselves 
. as such in Internet communications. Therefore, anyone representing 
. themselves as such in an Internet communication is to be considered an 
. imposter -- notwithstanding Michele's supposed communications with 
. people in the "legal department", that single point in and of itself 
. discredits the entire email.
. 
. I suppose we'll all remember now that Scott Fuller is kind of flagrant 
. in this regard as well, but as he's never used his credentials as a way 
. to support flimsy argumentation (and also because he seems to be 
. responsible for the redhat mirror) it's never occurred to me to say 
. anything about it.

. . Anthony,
. . I do not appreciate your attempted burn of my post. I do indeed work at America Online and I triple checked my post to make sure that I was not "releasing any company secrets" with the information that I provided. Everything that I have said has been in the public forum for a while. I even sent this post after your comments to our local legal department and they said it was fine. So, I would love to know what "company policies" you speak of that I have violated. Maybe I can let our legal team take a look and maybe they can learn something from you, since you seem to know it all. LOL
. . Secondly, I do not let my experience with AOL influence anything, as I am a CNA as well as an MCP. So, if anything, perhaps *you* need to reread my post and understand why you are probably getting spam every day. It is your attitude that makes me wary of joining these forums as it is people like you that ruin objective discussion. This is the last post I will make to this group as I will be leaving. I have no use for you and your "opinions" of what I know and what I don't. I deal with enough of your kind daily.
. . Sincerely,
. . Michele Campbell
