Louis, be careful what you say and remember that our mutual friends 
are just as blabby about you, only in
your case there just so much more to be blabby about.

Oh, right. So when you said:

I just misread that as meaning that you personally were arranging 
matters so that both M-I and M-and-S will be switching networks 
by May 10th, ie, taking over.

Thanks, maybe I will, but no-one needed your permission in the first place.

Horse shit, Louis, what you were doing is claim-jumping. But you have such
little experience in these matters, you are so naive and trutsful and so lacking
in what the Bolsheviks called _konspiratsiu_ that you can never succeed, and
that BTW is exactly why I was, am and will be behind you all the way. What
better moderator than someone so painfully incapable of cultivating friendships,
except the bicycle kind?

> I will say whatever I want.

  Yeah, right. I have all your sayings filed away in a 3kb file.

Mark
