Let me clear something up here: It appears Bill Swingle or Dave Angulo accidentally snipped the attribution of the rude reply below. People might easily get the wrong idea. sbcorey@azstarnet.com wrote the comment: > > > Just shows that common sense dosen't go with brains. The message went out to freebsd-questions, and I'm not subscribed to the list. Therefore I wanted to affirm that Neither I nor ChiFUG had anything to do with the rudeness in this exchange. For the record, I don't care if people are rude or stupid or diplomatic geniuses: I want to make it easier for people to use FreeBSD whoever they are.

I did not get a reply (it turns out that he had a hard disk crash and lost the message). I sent a followup message and copied freebsd.org because I did not know if the CHicago group was defunct. I received this extremely rude reply from the person at FreeBSD. > > > > I would suggest that you have some otherr person making public contacts as this person evidently does not have any idea on how to behave with people.
