Dear Paul,

hope, you don't mind I snipped the rest of the to and fro stuff - it's
known   by now.

Who is " us " I should trust in, Paul ??
And I really think it ain't too polite - not at all, to be precise - to
name
somebody elses opinion " a bit paranoid " -
I think you know the original meaning of this phrase, do you ?

A guy of 46 should have the right for an own opinion ; right or wrong -
I'm so long in this scene, that I'm willing to believe - nearly anything
-   good or bad - as commercial interests have reached a volume today,
which in no way compares to the 80ies.

I don't " believe " this or the other - to point this out explicit for
you   once more -
I just got my personal doubts - not less, not more.
And these doubts have only and exeptionally appeared because of the very
 unusual treatment of  CB thru' the SSDF, period.

In opposition - as it seems - I very well can accept the other sight
than    mine - but, as said, unfortunately an uncomfortable feeling will
remain for
me, just personally.
And I feel free to name this - as allways - lound 'n clear.

And that's just it, Paul - you see ?
