Pipe down you hall monitor, usenet kook, netcop, Mark Kent.
1. You and your girlfriend Roy Schestowitz violate the COLA "charter" every
single day and BTW putting [Rival] in your posts does not negate that fact.
2. This group does not have an official charter. It has the wet dream
creation by a bunch of whacked out Linux loony hypocrites, like yourself,
Mark Kent.
So why not cool down a bit, do like normal people do and keep your garbage
in COLA where it belongs.
Sheesh.
