Since WHEN does the act of getting new software that WE have to pay for
in order to use it fall under the category of being "deserved"????  Get
real.

And your slams against Paul are *totally* out of line and undeserved,
although I'm sure he'll speak for himself on this.

Obviously it's not getting through to you that attitudes like yours are
driving a *huge* wedge through the group, *not* winning people to your
side, and turning people off to using this platform--FOREVER.  Here's a
free hint for you, Nathan:  people don't like to be talked to the way
you talk to them.  Treat people decently and with respect and they will
support you and give you respect.  If you spit on their face and call
them undeserved names, don't expect respect and support in return.
