But that is untrue...you wrote sometime ago, that you quit PTG because you couldn't afford the dues. Or was that just another story? I remember you lost your programming job having something to do with Windows, at which point they became your most hated enemy...in comes Open Source and Linux. You were Don Quixote tilting the Microsoft windmill...flailing away. And now...PTG is in your sights...an organization filled with hypocrites... Really, Duaine...give it a rest.

That's why I quit, plain and simple. Maybe that's the problem, Duaine. You can't DEMAND respect - you must earn it, plain and simple. -- Ryan Sowers, RPT Puget Sound Chapter Olympia, WA www.pianova.net -- Duaine Hechler Piano, Player Piano, Pump Organ Tuning, Servicing & Rebuilding Reed Organ Society Member Florissant, MO 63034 (314) 838-5587 dahechler at att.net www.hechlerpianoandorgan.com -- Home & Business user of Linux - 10 years -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
