Don't know any, T1. Thought that you might be more enlightened than
myself. That's why I was asking. ...

Perhaps someone should post the request-for-information in
alt.usenet.kooks.
They ought to be more familiar with the material which is available ?

I am personna non grata, therein ....

Lucky you!

Will you never be satisfied?

Being sincere, now ...
I am becoming somewhat piqued that events between myself and AUK are
proceeding in a manner which is disquietingly similar and familiar to
other significant events in my life.

AUK is wary of me for good reason. They sense what may be coming ...

It seems that many of the regular posters in alt.astronomy are
struggling with something or other in their own lives: personal
tragedy, poverty, loneliness, etc. So any of us could, if hit hard
enough on a day when we're already down, be "pushed over the edge"!
That's why I wish that AUK would just stay out of here and mind their
own damned business!

THAT is exactly the reason which I mentioned the Formosa rule in the
first place in the begining of July. Apparently, Art thought that I
wished it applied specifically to myself. I thought that I was just
being cold shouldered. Most effective, btw!

Only after Art dropped the 'hint' did I go looking for the thread and
put together what had happened. I was so impressed by the way that
'auk' handled it combined by the steadfastness that they held to their
decision that I am left with no alternative but to accept it and
respect it for what it is.

Double-A, you are discovering for yourself what I already realize about
the Formosa Rule and the consequences that surround it. I feel quite
bound out of respect concerning what happened to say no more one way or
another. To do otherwise would be wrong for me. It ceased to be my
prerogative. ... assuming that it ever was so.

Formosa rule is like the parlay rule with Pirates you have to
first be one to use it. And once you're black balled don't complain. We
Earth Science Team Officers are above all that, fearless you must be so
never mine the auk clueless ones.

carry on,

I am well aware of it nightbat. It makes me feel rather awkward.

There are many sides to the situation. They are probably served better
by it than some of them realize.

I complain because it 'hurts' and I want them to know that. They earned
that knowledge.

For the rest, you must explore and discover yourself. The issue is too
important and consequential. I cannot be manipulative about it. .. that
really is for 'auk' to discover, decide and manage. Its their
initiative, their prerogative. It is for them to do for themselves
regardless of what I might think, feel or understand. Criminal laws are
changing. The issue is a very real one with hard detrimental
consequences.

AUK earned my respect for real; not because they did me a favor or what
they decided specifically. Rather because they initiated and pursued a
responsible process with intelligence, sensibility, conviction and
discipline. The factual outcome is secondary. It is whatever.

Adopting and adhering to something like the Formosa rule whilst
engaging upon what they do presents them with a connumdrum that they
are working through. I don't envy them. I respect their effort. I am
aware of the implictions and rammifications of it all.

I have said all that I can bring myself to say. It makes me feel
awkward.
Without doubt, what is occuring with regard to these issues will
greatly benefit everyone ... Hopefully, it will benefit 'Auk' most of
all. They are fighting to learn how to better conduct themselves. I
appreciate that. I must respect that. It is for you and others to
provide your own input should you feel that it is appropriate. You may
or may not be listed to. It will be interpreted as it will be so. ...

Could it be any other way given this scenario ?
