Peter, how does one obtain the exact same rights that you have to
[log in to unmask] You know that this is exactly what I was
requesting, but you keep trying to dodge the issue. I don't what to be the
owner. I do want all the other rights and passwords.
You are trying to use the same evasive tactics that Amos Anderson uses
(Amos: "How do you define Latino?". Peter: "How do you define
listserver?" President Clinton: "It depends on what the definition of is
is"). Again, how can I obtain the exact same rights and privileges and
passwords that you have to [log in to unmask]
I ask the questions publicly because the issue is a CU issue, which is "Why
is only a couple people dictating the use of
[log in to unmask] And, how can the administration of the
listserver be finally in the hands of the members?
On several occasions, a couple "real members" of CU made important
decisions in the name of CU.
Again, how can I obtain the exact same rights and privileges and passwords
that you have to [log in to unmask] This message only asks about
[log in to unmask] I don't want to hear about Yahoo. Like you and
Alphonso, I want to be a moderator of [log in to unmask]
