Look, that kind of rhetoric may work elsewhere, but not with me. I've given
you no insults or vulgar language. Re-read my posts and show where you
saw this vulgar language, or admit that you're lying.

Again, re-read my post. I SAID I WAS NOT AN APPLE II PROGRAMMER. What part
of that do you not understand?

Look, I'm all for fostering argument for the sake of having something fun
to do, but I didn't ask for any of this, and your arguments have no basis.

Further requests from people like you who have nothing to do with the
operation of our channel will be ignored. I'm done wasting my time with
you.

Uh-huh. We also don't appreciate being critiqued and told what to do,
by people who call us 'elitist', 'assholes', and accuse us of trying to
take over some fabled 'Apple II world' that we have no involvement in.
Your mob-mentality fantasy world is probably great for you. The only
viewpoint I've advocated since day one is this: GO SOMEWHERE ELSE WHERE
YOU FEEL YOU ARE BETTER SERVED OR ACCEPTED. Are you not content to just
let people live their own lives and not bother each other?
