Well, despite Mark's apparent bigotry (intended or not), I hope he
doesn't get prosecuted as he mentioned he might.
As for Niall, wow. Extreme. Glad you admitted it though. I in my
unavoidably racist subconcious was blaming someone with a non-English name.

Maybe his boss didn't appreciate him enough to stick up for him. Maybe he'll
get a better job because of it. Or maybe his boss will change his mind.
I'm sorry it all turned out this way.

I cc'd them on the message I sent to this list in a moment of madness at the
rubbish arriving in my inbox and which I now regret.

I am absolutely NOT kidding.
The point is NOT that I was using my government email address to
subscribe to a technical mail list. Nor is it that I was posting
irreverent nonsense. The point is that somebody on this list copied
selective posts with my government email address in the subject line
and then notified the State agency in which I was employed. The
archive clearly show who did this, and was a dispicable act and
violation of Net ethos. Never before in 20 years of using the
Internet for communication have I heard of anybody doing something
like this.
I signed back on to struts-user to find out what is happening with
struts these days. Those of you who have known me on this list (and
others, and personally) for years know that my sense of humor (or lack
thereof) is abrasive, but never was any harm meant. What is next?
DOS attacks on IP addresses by people who disagree with the
committers? I was helping people learn struts on this list before
most of the present subscribers knew Java; I have an acknowledgement
in Chuck Cavaness' O'Reilly book, "Programming Struts;" I'm the one
who started the [FRIDAY] humor posts, remember?
Look in the archive for the subject with
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in it and you can see for yourself
who did this. Watch what you say and where you say it from - you
could be next.
It looks like I have been banned from the list; Craig says he approves.

Thanks to whomever emailed last weeks nonsense thread to the Director
of the Board of Elections. It made me look like a racist and I was
fired this morning. The State is also looking into whether my use of
an official email address for that discussion is in violation of state
law. You did your work well, you low-life bastard.
Signing off....

So, I can get a H1B just by learning Struts and use it decently? :)
