First of all, this may be my first post to this list, having lurked  
around here for a while. ;)

Quoting "MJ Ray" <mjr at phonecoop.coop>:

I've seen the same, but slightly personalised on 4 other LUG lists I  
follow. I only know one question got answered by Peter George and that  
was who are edLuggers!

Valid points which I would agree with, so maybe he can address them on  
here. However these are not valid reasons for banning someone off this  
LUG list IMHO.
