Why the negativity, man?

Yer jumpin' the gun!

Whoa!!  Mathew apparently has some ISSUES!

Doing a quick search, I found a nice little comment on Mathew in
comp.sys.cbm that went a little something like this:

""One -- Matthew Montchalin -- is so mindless, he deserves special
mention." ... "He is not only immoral, but amoral." ... 

And Mathew's own words in another CBM posting:

"Finally, to discourage PC lamers from logging in, a conspicuous
message at the front of the BBS could inform them that PC users are
encouraged to log out immediately before they contract a computer
virus that will destroy their hardware.  That way, your BBS line stays
free of idiots that tie it up for no logical reason."

If any "PC lamers" would like to drop Mathew a personal noce, feel
free to write a letter and send it to his home address:

	Matthew Montchalin
	1823 N Coast Hwy 101
	Newport,  OR  97365-2022


Maybe a copy of Windows 3.1, so he can upgrade his machine.

Hope you get what you need, Mathew!
