I think that his complaints to your newsgroup provider were wrong and reprehensible.

Steve, you've cost me my job. Maybe you didn't do it, but someone did using the address you posted. I don't know what to say. I'm sorry for my involvement in making this such a super-heated situation. I'm due to go to the hospital for surgery in just an hour or so, and this has not helped. This has left me without the means to support my family. I will never set foot in this NG again under any name. I sincerely apologize to Stave Lare for anything I've ever done that pushes a human being to engagee in this type of nonsense. Steve, there are obviously people in here that want to push you into doing silly things. They are not me. Finished, forever, with this nonsense. Curmudgeon, whoever you are, please stop bothering Steve! He will simply keep assuming it's me. And that's already caused enough damage in my life. Gone, Michael Bryant, WA4009SWL Louisville, KY R75, S800, RX320, SW77, ICF2010K, DX398, 7600G, 6800W, RF2200, 7600A GE SRll, Pro-2006, Pro-2010, Pro-76 (remove "nojunk" to reply) 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? LOL... |

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. |

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. |

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. |

The only one I've heard that rings nicer is Kerry-Sharpton '04. Gotta love that one. It'll have every Kommie-Krat south of Pittsburgh voting for Dubyah. Diversity, ya' know. A good show if bi-partisanship, don'tcha see. Now if Hillary was to get elected in '08, I'm sure Billy-Bob would be glad to interview the interns so she could turn to the nation's more pressing issues. Like cattle futures and pharmaceutical stocks. Yeah - Hillary and Janet might be a good ticket for the Kommie-Krats in '08. Maybe have profit Stair for White House chaplain. |

I doubt very seriously he was involved with that type of activity. I actually don't think *anything* has happened to him as he has been so prone to deception, diversion and misleading tactics in the past that I have no rational reason to believe that he's not playing each and every one of you for a fool now. If you want to buy into his load of tripe, by all means go ahead - I have no problem with it. What I *do* have a problem with is when you cop an attitude when I horse-laugh you for falling for it. I know this is just usenet, but "get real"... I just called the Louisville Tech 800 number and the woman I spoke to told me he was still employed there. She then directed me to his voice mail (I did not leave a message). Just another darn interesting day! Hilarious too, when you count all of his kindred souls falling for his ruse... Perhaps we're being duped. He probably got called on the carpet at the most. Still, leave peoples family and employer out of Usenet, PERIOD! Damn, you're gullible. -- Stinger |
