Re: IPB: LAST CALL ON Pinball 2000 Playfield Glass 2nds

Dude, keep up with times, step into the 21 Century sometime. All that
Compuserve 9600 baud, BBS stuff you're quoting is relevant to early 90es,
and the old times gone by.

You keep bottom feeding/posting, I'll keep top posting and we'll do just
fine. Who posts in what way, really doesn't make any difference to me, it's
what they type, say and write or their opinions that matters. if you
disagree, that's frankly too bad.

Plus, I really don't have so much time to waste on "proper" way of dong
things according to you or some other geek and their website. Thank you, Mr.
No Spam.
