Doesn't make sense to me. Really... I aggree... its just like I said earlier... this is a continous ongoing cyber social/technical meeting and functions much like you would expect of such a real life event. The conversations move back and forth between serious content, and lighthearted conversation, arguement and jibbing, with all the aspects of our indivdual personalities thrown in. And as such there are always some who get tired of the whole thing and want to leave the party, or perhaps just get tired and want a break. Even some who come and go... bar flies I think they call them in real life.... SWAT :) Let people be people, and get the most out of whats offered to you. More you can not accomplish. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F. UiB, Bergen, Norway mailto:rbrekne@broadpark.no http://home.broadpark.no/~rbrekne/ricmain.html
