So you want to stop this discussion, but you post a loonng message just
begging any MS fanatic to respond to your flame of the company?!?  Not a
very good tactic to stop a flame war, do you think?  You just added more

would appreciate that.

Jimmy Carter:

Konstantin - "Hey all you oppressed people out there!  We really need to
get the President Arastin back into power, OK?  But before we do that,
just let me say one thing... 'You all SUCK!'"  OK, can we just stop this
little tif now and get back to normal?"
