>I can tell you that Rainer is very much aware of what happened with FoxTalk and will not stoop to the same tactics.

Of course he is - he used to be the editor for a while. Surely some info kept reaching him after that.

Which is actually too bad that it all turned this way. Had Rainer had a free hand when he was in charge, who knows how it would look nowadays. Instead, we're stuck with no FT2.0, and with scoundrels from Eli Publishing.
