First, let me apologize for my inappropriate comments. They were uncalled for. It was a knee-jerk reaction and I know better than doing this. However, in my defense, I would like to say if they has said something like, "we understand your pain and we'll help by setting up a poll to see what the users want", it would have gone over much better than "Denied". My intent on creating this discussion thread was to get a consensus from the list members. Although it was not an "official" poll, it was my attempt at such. Yes, Bob offered alternatives, most of which I had already said were difficult to deal with. I would like to continue to be active in TCLUG, but my efforts at organizing the installfest were greatly hampered due to the logistics of having to forward e-mails from one account to another, as well as publicly exposing my employers e-mail and domain address to the spam fiends. It also makes me feel like a second class citizen in TCLUG. Is there a procedure for setting up this official poll? > -----Original Message----- > From: Wayne Johnson > Sent: Monday, June 26, 2006 8:57 AM > To: Wayne Johnson; tanner at real-time.com; tclug-list at mn-linux.org > Subject: Totally free TCLUG mailing list > > > [Sorry, should have changed the subject.] > > Anyone want to join me on a totally free tclug mailing list? > > http://www.dccmn.com/mailman/listinfo/free-tclug > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org > > [mailto:tclug-list-bounces at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Wayne Johnson > > Sent: Monday, June 26, 2006 8:28 AM > > To: tanner at real-time.com; tclug-list at mn-linux.org > > Subject: Re: [tclug-list] Yahoo mail access to this mailing list > > > > > > Fine.
