539.0. "Graffetti" by EXOTIC::MCCROHAN (Mike McCrohan @BPO Dtn 296-3040) Wed Mar 29 1989 18:49

    re the poetry in the Munich note, etc.:
    
    Talk to some of the prople that you might notice don't contribute 
    to this notesfile any more, and you may find that more
    people than you care to consider share my opinion that the 
    value of a notesfile is inversely proportional to the
    number of trivial entries (SOAPBOX and TRIVIA aside).
   
    If you feel you must attack those people whose opinions you do not
    share, you eventually find that it gets to be a lonely world.
    
    Meantime, feel free to use this note for graffetti!
    
    
    Go n'eirigh an m'bothar leat!
    
    Slan,

    	Mike: Rather than complain about the existing process, how about
    	      offering some viewpoints on how you think the "value"
    	      this notesfile can be improved?
    
    	      What exactly is it that you perceive needs to be changed?
    
    	      What topics would you (or anyone else) like to see discussed?
    
    	      Here's your chance folks ...........

    We could start by spelling graffiti correctly ;-)
    
    Then kick out the Irish and encourage more Scots and Welsh....

539.4Freedom Oh Freedom........MARCIE::KSULLIVANFri Mar 31 1989 10:5521
    I agree totally with Mr. McCrohan...it's this very ludicrous 
    absurdity that demeans the tone and aesthetic value of this 
    invaluable communication vehicle.....you mindless contributers
    have absolutely no appreciation of the freedom of expression
    that is available to you, and its squandering on such petty
    squabbles and inane nonsensical frivolities is nothing short
    of criminal. (Rumour has it) In Russia there are people who 
    tell you exactly what you can and what you cannot write.....
    
    Can you believe that????  
    
    Wake up and start appreciating the gifts, that noone in the rest
    of the world are entitled to, you ungrateful gaggle of hethans.
    
    I suggest that each of you offenders, and you know who you are,
    should send a note of apology and thanks to Mr. McCrohan for bringing
    this to your attention.
                           
       Yours who has seen the light and mended the errors of his way, 
       
                          Murphy.

    re: .2...
    
    Thanks, Kevin. I find it irksome that almost every time
    that anyone opens a subject on a theme; asks for info on a subject,
    etc, that the note seems to immediately break into a rash of banter
    that has no relation to the root note, and does nothing to answer
    the question asked in the first place. 
    	I have no desire to silence or gag people - such as seems to
    be suggested by others. I do not believe in undue or arbitary
    censorship (despite being told that, as my opinion differs from
    others', I should exclude and exile myself from the conference).
    	All I have done is to state that I dislike the practice stated
    above. I also posed the hypothisis (sp?) that previously active
    contributers may not now be participating because they, too, dislike
    it. Perhaps this notesfile is not as interesting as it once was?
    I don't know for sure, but........
    
    	Well, I've said my piece.
    	If people think I should not, well, thats another problem...
    
    
    
    
    Sincerely, Mike

    	Fair Play Mike ....
    
    
    	Your opinion is always welcome, but in true Burns fashion, I
    	think your comment about people not getting answers to their
        questions, might just be a little inaccurate. Most of us, attempt
    	to answer any/all questions posed in this conference. Many times
    	I contact the person directly, so sometimes the answers do not 
    	appear in original note. (I can talk faster than I can type) :-)
              
    
    	Relax .... "Chill Out Dude" .. We are ALL here to have fun ..

	NO ONE is trying to exclude or exile you, or anyone else, from this 
        conference, All of the recent Slaggin' was intended to be in "Good Fun" 

        And to prove we still like ya, the next time we meet, 
	YOU can buy the Pints ........ :-)

539.7Agree.....never!!!MARCIE::KSULLIVANMon Apr 03 1989 10:529
    Who suggested that, as your opinions differ from everyone else, 
    you should exile yourself from the file?
    
    I have rarely seen anyone agree about anything in here....that 
    Murphy character disagrees with just about everyone....and noone,
    as yet, has asked him to leave.....
    
                           Kevin.
