   Enough of this crap already.  While I am an OS/2 advocate, I am not a
member of Team OS/2.  Personally, I don't think that there is any shame
in being part of Team OS/2 though seeing as it is essentially a group of
individuals who believe in OS/2's benefits strongly enough to donate their
own time to help promote OS/2.  Seems kind of noble.  The downside is that
calling themselves a group automatically makes them a target.  As the saying
goes, "one rotten apple can spoil the bunch"...and people are all too eager
to try and find that apple.

   I see you doing what a lot of Windows advocates try to do.  By associating
me with a particular group (lumping me in so to speak), it makes it easier
for you to try and discount what I have to say.  That's pathetic, but then
I know what to expect when I see your sig.
