I made no changes to the header, and all newsgroups were left intact.


He is selling something - the website he posted is selling something.
If this was a herbal site the place would be up in arms!.

It is not a direct sales posting and his involvement is what is relevant.

I sure doubt that many of the posters or lurkers will sign up.

Peter is one of the speakers. A conference is not selling something.

'Followup-To: alt.dev.null'

If you didn't change the headers then you have my apologies, the header
suggests you need to fix your newsreader/poster because evidently it is
malfunctioning badly, any follow up messages go to alt.dev.null.

I was experimenting wit something. Apologies.

I would only do this to Debbee.

Did Marla make it so if you responded ... it went to alt.null or
something like that?

This is just another of the Quacks ways of trying to control a
discussion ... shills like Probert want their lies unresponded to.

Please let me know if this is what he did AGAIN ... he's done it
several times lately...

I will do it to you whenever I feel like it, especially when you post
abusive messages, like this one.

It's a shame it's in Australia, making it impractical for me to consider
attending (that, and the fact that I'm on call that week). Have a good
conference though. It looks as though it will be stimulating and
provocative. You are to be commended.

That's pathetic even by your standards. It's a conference. There are
expenses, not the least of which are renting the conference space and
flying in the speakers. The cost listed, when converted into American
dollars is quite in line with other medical conferences I attend.
Indeed, the registration fee of Peter's conference is considerably
cheaper than that of most medical conferences I've attended.

Forgot the final sentence: Not to mention that Peter is a speaker at the
conference and that the vast majority of people reading this newsgroup
are not from Australia and likely couldn't even attend if they wanted to.
