Re: peering wars revisited? PSI vs Exodus

[Gordon Cook]

Majdi, please lets get something straight.  I am a one person 
organization.  I officially publish a  25 to 30 thousand word 
newsletter every month.  I have done so since april 1992.  I am my 
own boss and never denied that I am a bit of a curmudgeon who is not 
overly respectful of the powers that be.

so complaining won't change a thing

because I don't have the time to do so....  I have already enough 
interview material for my next two issues in various states of 
editing.....

I covered the BBN exodus spat of august sept 98 extensively, believe 
me I am not much interested in covering this one

them or so can members of the trade press who now at least KNOW about 
them because i made the information available here

no kidding majdi, let's drop the ad hominum's ok and return the 
discussion to the operational status of the net?
