An earlier messaged reverberated and echoed thusly:
Mr. David Piekarczyk:
.. extended rant snipped...
T G Parker
Did everyone on the Fractint and Ultrafractal lists really need to know this?
Folks, I already wrote Mr. Parker chatising him for posting his rant on the list. He took it quite well and apologized. The psychologically unsatisfying truth is that comments to the list about ill advised or off topic posts are -- you guessed it!! -- just as off topic as the original. Please resist the temptation! :-) If it looks like action on my part is needed, you can email me privately. On occasion this has been helpful because I am not always aware of every message. This time I responded before any of you alerted me. Your cooperation in making THIS message the last in this thread are appreciated! Happy fractaling! (is that a verb??) Tim Wegner
