How would you feel if someone close to you lost a job because of some unimportant newsgroup BS? mike |

Damn, it must be easier to get someone fired these days than I thought. So, someone contacted Louisville Tech... just what did they say? Bryant posts at RRS? Fire him? I didn't see anything in his posts that would give any employer grounds to fire him. So the debate got "lively" at times. Grounds to fire him? I don't see it. It's not like he was making terrorist threats. |

The email was sent in an expectation of privacy and was a request NOT to bother his employers. And what was N8KDV's repeated (ad-nauseum) public demands in here that the spammer *cease* emailing him? You *honestly* do not have the capacity to see the entire view - only the limited range of a single thread, and then pass judgement based solely on that limited view? Come now! A public disclosure of it is about the same as a wire tap on an unknowing person. It stinks. After the volume of public demands to stop emailing N8KDV, how in the world do you rationalize that MWB had even the *slightest* reasonable and prudent expectation of privacy in further spamming N8KDV? It doesn't stink at all - It smells wonderful! You appear to have a rather limited and skewed sense of what an unauthorized wire-tap is. There is simply *zero* comparison... How would you feel if someone close to you lost a job because of some unimportant newsgroup BS? I would feel sincerely embarrassed for you that you actually fell for that line of BS! You bought into that hook-line-sinker, didn't you? Forgive me for chuckling at your expense. What kind of job exposes you to termination because of a silly flame-war on usenet? One that objects to the use of company resources and time..... .....well you fill in the rest. |

Beware people, what comes around goes around. |

By the way, he works at: http://www.louisvilletech.com/conten...=&siteid=&app= Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B http://www.iserv.net/~n8kdv/dxpage.htm I had strong suspicions that the foot-prints up and down MWB's back were your size... Bryant needs to learn that freedom-of-speech works both ways. If he wants to leverage his right to free speech in an unethical manner, then he (by default) agrees to be called on it and have that speech attributed (correctly and properly) directly to himself. Shame on him and anyone who defends or agrees with MWB's behavior & tactics. If they want to blame someone, thay can look squarely at MWB... What a load of crap. |

Right guys? Agreed. Though I don't blame him if he leaves. We need to find the dirtbag who ratted to his employer. |
