I am against "pirating" in any form. I would no sooner copy your newsletter
to anywhere else than I would be willing to cut off my arm. I have no idea
who QC is, nor do I have any idea who was stealing your newsletter and
posting it somewhere else. I don't even know where that "somewhere else" is,
or was.

Again you use the "they" reference. I have no idea what you're talking
about. Seems like typical discrimination at its' full ugliness. "They"
implies a group of people you dislike and therefore will not tolerate. If a
person even resembles a "they", you discriminate.
