Why did you direct this at me? I'm making a joke of what the other nimrod said about Michel having to let us know when he would be around. Did you post incorrectly or just mixing drugs incorrectly?

>Also FWIW: while it is possible to read Michel's post as an excuse, it seems out of character IMHO. You could also read it as part of the deliberations of a man who has poured his all into UT, fighting governments, foregoing vacations, remaining silent in the face of overt provocations, feeling somewhat little let down by the lack of financial support and by the willingness of people to believe the worst and to hold him to far higher standards than those shown in other boards (try insulting the sysop of other boards the way people have insulted Michel here and you'd be in orbit in a microsecond) ... and who is now on vacation for the first time and enjoying the messages of goodwill sent his way.
