I know you remove most Spam messages from the NG's, but it would be nice if
you also remove the headers.
For example:

"Best A.d.u.l.t S.i.t.e"
"$$$$$$$$wanna be rich...check this$$$$$$"
"$$$$$$$$EXCELLENT CASH INCOME$$$$$$"

Thanks, Joe

No matter what you think of the company, product or "management".... it
makes no sense to insult ex-employees.  I think I gave Frank++ and the
others as much grief as anyone here..but I never insulted them personally
and I still consider them friends.   I know Frank was under much stress at
times... ( it's not fun to not get paid ) and he handled that very well.
( Better than I would have  ).

geeeeeeeeeeeeeeez lighten up al, if you had taken the time to talk to 
current and past employees, I was one of the few that never complained, 
and I have been playing with xbase since 1.0.... Go have dinner with al 
Franken, he's got a sense of humor,

by the by, thank you for your indirect kindness to Alaska Soft...
If I were to complain, it would have stooped at release 1.5 when Alaska 
started getting serious.
VX is TOP in my book and the staff has always helped me... But due to my 
  southern German heritage, I do hard ball more then I should

Ok, understand southern Germany .  Guess since I would also be classified
as an ex-employee, I missed the humor of your message .

As for Alaska Soft.... I figure I'm doing everyone here a favor by my
complaints.  I know how stubborn Steffen is and if I continue.... he will
try his best to prove me wrong <GGG>.

And, I have never seen Steffen, ever, trying to prove Al, wrong here
(atleast in the NG). I wish, Al, you could have appreciated him the same
way.

As you mentioned once, that you got your money back. Good Deal. Enjoy. Have
fun ! Why sound like a 'saddist', ALWAYS.

If you DO enjoy coming here, do (TRY) to contribute something too. Else, its
a huge world....enjoy man !

Anand (enjoying a weekend...)

Anand,

>> I have never seen Steffen, ever, trying to prove Al, wrong here (atleast
in the NG).

No, he knows better .... what I mean by trying to prove me wrong is by
keeping Xbase++ alive for as long as possible.  If he does that, then you
all win.... if he doesn't?  Another xbase product bites the dust and you all
go looking for the next great hope .

Yes I had a great weekend.... thanks for the kind words.

Al
