That message was NOT written by me...

Someone created the account and subscribed for the express purpose of sending
an idiotic post...

I had decided to withhold a response, but now I fear that others may think I
wrote that message...

Following is the response I drafted earlier:

I have no problem discussing this off list...

It has been asked MANY times by others, that the list NOT continue discussion
on this here...

And, whomever you are, you must really have some self-esteem issues if you need
to masquerade as another person to address this issue... Just because I acted
like a jerk in descending to the level of response I did, does not pardon
similar behavior by me or others in response..

Again, I am more than willing to discuss this off list...

There is one issue I will discuss here.. I did not post a fake virus to the
list... I posted a file renamed to "Format.exe." to show the danger of not
stripping attachments.. That's about as un-virus like as you can get. It
broke the rules on attachments and for that I was appropriately banned for
awhile, but it was not in any way a fake virus..

OH, and since I never got the chance to respond on-list, I volunteered, at the
time, to find and purchase the appropriate software for the list and Gordon to
ensure that attachments are stripped from posts...

FINALLY, I have not considered this a "win"... If I had "won", I would not
have felt any need to apologize as I did..

Now let it die.
