Hiya, Reeking, Rotund Rodent!

 *>Kim, you are a fine Apple II/IIgs programmer that has made many  amazing
 *>contributions with your work and software development.

Yes he is.

 *>You deserve all the credit and thanks for such. You are certainly entitled
 *>to it.

Yes he does.

 *>However this 'comp.sys.apple2' Usenet newsgroup IS the center of the Apple
 *>II universe for 

I knew there'd be a "however" in here somewhere.

 *>the majority of the 25,000+ readers of  it. 

*snork*....  cough cough...

Where the hell did you come up with THAT little tidbit, Dorktor?  Wouldn't it be 
even MORE impressive if you lied just a little bit bigger and made it 250,000?  
;)

 *> They can find all the information and help they seek from this Usenet Apple
 *>II newsgroup also and they can do so for free.

True, but it's a bit like walking into a crackhouse and asking it's patrons for 
help.  ;)

 *>I think it's correct to say that the majority of the readers and subscribers 

"readers and subscribers"?  Is this yet another example of your redundant 
epilogues?

 *>to comp.sys.apple2  ***DO NOT*** consider it to be 
 *>- as you label it 'a back alley leading to the sewer'.

So... You've voiced your opinion.  You've cancelled Kim out.  Now it's my turn.  
;)  It's "a back alley leading to the sewer".  And coming from the crackhouse.  
;)

 *>Certainly, if any of them desire to pay a monthly fee to be a  subscriber to
 *>a2.central.com and find whatever they are not able to find from posting to
 *>this newsgroup - by all means  they should do so. 

You can be certain that you won't find snivelling thieves there.  They're too 
cheap.  ;)

 *> It's clear that a2.central.com is doing their very best effort to become
 *>'The centre of the Apple II universe' -  just as many Apple II forums on
 *>Delphi claimed to be in the past.

Heh.. I remember YOUR little Delphi effort too.  Sad.  Apparently, your only 
kingdom is right here.  ;)

 *>I've seen many post from you to this newsgroup announcing your software 
 *>releases in the past.  

Probably wants to beat YOU to it.  

 *>I'm really wondering just why you do such - when  you consider it to be: ? a
 *>back alley leading to the sewer? ???

Everyone knows how you enjoy popping up with "Announcements", fictitious or 
otherwise.  ;)

It's probably fun to deny you any possibility of leeching on his efforts.  ;)

 *>There are a few dozen people that post to and read this newsgroup - who are
 *>also paying subscribers to all of the offered services from a2.central.com.

I'll bet you had to kick off your shoes and peel your socks off to count THAT 
high, Charles!  ;)

 *>There are also many thousands who do not desire or seek such offered 
 *>'pay for it' services.  

Again with the thousands...  Your body lice don't count, Tom.  ;)

 *>I am one of them.  

Sure.  One of "them".  The stinky.  The liar.  The thief.  ;)

 *>I visit a2.central.com every day to learn whatever they do offer to the
 *>general public by free Internet access.  

And when you find something, you rush back here.  Evidently your minions are 
incapable of actually going there themselves.  ;)

 *>But, I have no reason or desire to pay for their member only services
 *>offered.

I really wonder if they'd have you.  ;)

 *>There are two sides to any and every fence. 

Oh oh... I sense another of Tom's patented brain farts coming..

 *>I like to see things from both sides of the fence.  

LOL!  I've got this great mental image of you straddling a nice tall barbed wire 
fence, with a pained look on your face!  ;D 

 *>It gives me a very clear prespective of what is happening in the Apple II
 *>community, past, present and future.

Oh HO!  Tom is now omniscient.  Quick, how many claws am I holding behind my 
back!  ;)

 *> I often wonder why others don?t choose this method of viewing the entire
 *>community from both sides of the fence. 

Probably because their heads aren't pointy enough to shove completely up their 
lower alimentary canal.  Face it, you have a gift.  ;)

 *>It does give a full view on the reality of most all issues.

But haven't you wondered why it's so dark and rank?  You really need a colostomy 
to let some light in!  ;)

 *>Cheers, Tom

The fumes must keep you happy at least.  Don't forget your meds!
