Here here Bob!

I can't believe that folks would attack Ken over something that someone
else said back in 1992. And yes, I was HEAVILY involved in commercial PBM
in 1992 and I also remember the Grandel "scandal"... And yes, I remember
thinking that bringing a lawyer into play was an overreaction.

Let's give Ken a break. He's trying to do something positive for the
industry and I, for one, don't believe he did anything wrong.

As a side note: If you're reading this post, take a good look at the
headers in this newsgroup. See any significant posts about the games we
play??? No - most of the posts are argumentative rebuttals... and
unfortunately, I don't believe we'll see any improvement in the ratio in
the near future because of several loud-mouthed individuals scream anytime
someone posts a game-type message here...

To prove this point, watch what happens when I post something about my
game, World Conquest... <grin>
