Re: S11 protest I will be there will you?



I for one am TOTALLY oposed to having this stuff in
Computerbank mailing list

It is TOTALLY inapproriate for this discussion to take
place in the Computerbank mailing list.

It is TOTALLY outside the brief of Computerbank's
constitution to have this discussion in Computerbank's
mailing list.
