Unfortunately that was the reason OMEGA has closed the AOL message
board more than 2 years ago - as there it was easy to go back on threads and
check all the negative postings......
Wonder whether that cant be organized "privately" these days - so we dont
have to read umpteeeeth requests for the same code, safesoft adress, black
box, cable splitter etc. as it will be all searchable.......??????
how about this e-groups lists....they have archives - could they handle such a
volume ?

PS: ofcourse thats NOTHING against JIMO, who does a great great job with
providing this forum here !
