time for my $.06 (if i'm an elitist, i MUST consider my time more valuable than $.02 :-)) this list has been a source of great pleasure for me -- mostly because it has not degenerated into name calling and setenv FLAME=on like most of the newsgroups i've read -- please, folks, don't let it degenerate. sweeping generalisations about how much of an elitist i am are not valuable contributions. let's talk hockey. jag RPI (elitist) '87 btb -- i agree with Ross -- to base any opinion on the journalistic merits of the Troy Record/Albany Union is to build a castle on sand. btbtb -- is RPI ALWAYS such a hot topic?? i signed on about two months ago, and ^^^^^^ it's the single most frequent topic. :-) -- Joseph A.
