You say you present facts ; I don't think that is true and it is very
understandable that you currently are not in the mood to do so .

A little example :

a.) Original Article :

Hat Schröder vielleicht die Niederlage von London nicht verwunden? Oder könnte
er womöglich ernsthaft glauben, auf diese Weise die Aufmerksamkeit der
Öffentlichkeit auf sich zu ziehen, und so den (etwas schwächelnden) Absatz
seines (DOS)- Programms ankurbeln zu können?

I agree that this is not written in nice style and is some nasty nonsense but
let's see what you make out of it :

b.) Translation for CCC

>...didn´t schröder digest the defeat in london? or does he believe to catch
>the attention of the public to force the sales of his feeble dos-program?

You might agree that there is still a little difference between a feeble program
and feeble sales figures ...

Then you decided to talk about one half of the story ( your quotes ) but to
leave out the other half ( your accuses against Meyer-Kahlen that he wanted you
to cheat for him in preparation for WMCCC1999 ) where your posts were just as
nasty as the ones you oppose to .

I think all this is simply ugly mud-throwing containing no interesting news ; if
you feel you have to fight this on your various webpages ...

The last message from Ossi Weiner was moderated here ( and I think right so ) ;
yours should have been too IMHO .
