I might point out that many of the disks, CD's and programs you currently offer for sale are riddled with archives that I released over the years for the use of the Apple II community. Perhaps you should review all those archives, CD's, disks and such that you so eagerly sell to Apple II users from your Shareware Solutions II business, that are either direct creations that were released from me, have my name included with them or are the result of my working with others with the development on such programs, graphics and music files. Your post simply presents a clear and blazing double standard from you in all respects concerning me for everybody to clearly see. You are more than willing to sell CD's, disks and such that clearly contain items which show they were released by me, created by me, or made available with my help and efforts in some way - while you are making money from such sales, with my name related to it. Yet, you make such abusive public posts concerning me and your ironclad demands that nothing with your name on it be made available from anything I'm connected with. If that's not a clear case of double standards - I don't know what is. You are most certainly the ultimate Capitalistic Hippie - as you call yourself and by all means - the most grand Hypemiester of them all today in the Apple II community. I've never seen anybody filled with so much hate and paranoia over one individual - namely me - as you so violently present to the public - concerning anything with your name on it that might be remotely related to anything or any place on the Internet that I'm involved with or responsible for the contents of. Can't you see that your double standards with all this is rapidly destroying you in every way from both the inside and from the outside? Please watch your blood pressure Joe. I don't want you blaming me if you jack it up over 'Charles T. Turley' to the point of having a stroke or such. Sincerely, Tom
