Re: Request For Respect Of Others Needs

Mr. Logan, I just bought MetaStock (10 days ago) and wasn't aware of a MS
bashing incident. Are you saying that if I want to make a request (like I
did) that I have to be on record of complaining about something else before
I can do so? Would it help if I bashed MS now or is it too late? Or (if I
detect your feelings correctly) defend MS?

My goodness what a silly conversation!

You may not have noticed, but this list is not for purists. All subjects
that remotely concern MS and the associated support systems are fair game. I
did not hear a peep from your direction during the interminable MS bashing,
and, for the life of me, I cannot see how that was in any way productive.
