I agree completely, Ed. Edith drew a line in the sand and told people
they can't cross it. At the beach, the bully can enforce that by size,
weight and age. Here, they can't. It was a simple invitation to cause
trouble. I'm sure there are nice people on uk.fd.m, but I'm not very
interested. There are nice people on this group. It appeared to me,
though, that the people who were cross-posting a few months back, were
not nice people. I have a killfile entry here on rfc, so anything
crossposted to the other group doesn't appear. That works for me.
