How about this bet Jack. Clark has stated he will go to Adrian Walker
and ask
him for the echo back because he was the legal owner and he DID give you
the
password.

As long as you are not respecting what we agreed on in keeping the echo
the way it was then it will be without me.

Yes you did get me a BBS to point off and I thank you for that. You have
not kept that promise to date of keeping this echo as it was.

 JS> I will not reply to any more unfriendly comments in the open
 JS> echo.

Honest comments are not met to be unfriendly. What about that "BAIT" you
posted for Sheppard Gordon is that keeping your promise?

Is it in keeping with your promise to tell people to leave if they don't
like the way you run things with in a few days of taking over?
