Yeah, so?  I worked for BindView at one point to.  Last time I checked I
had a mind of my own and being a part of NMRC doesn't mean that I have
to conform to anyone's point of view other than my own.  I speak for
myself and myself alone.  Funny Gobbles said the same thing about me
once.  Even more funny that you point your finger at me saying that I am
making the wrong assumptions based on perceptions yet you do the same
about me.

No, I wouldn't consider them fabricated.  I am simply saying that if I
am misinformed, please school me and show me the error of my ways.

Fair enough.  Then I will gladly admit that I was misinformed.  Probably
not the first time and probably not the last.  I'm not perfect.

Based on who I thought was a part of this whole thing.  So I am
misinformed and I really don't know their skill level although they have
rooted some people whom one would think would know how to secure a box.
Then again, I could probably just as easily end up on the owned list.

Actually no, I wouldn't say that they are inconclusive.  I find the el8
txt files amusing -- that is until I end up on them that is.  :-)
