George,

My apology for the late response due to the reason I previously stated in my
response to Ams.

You did cordially invite me to join your listserv,assuring me that I'll not
be disrespected.I responded to you indicating how honored I was regarding
the invitation.You were also informed about my busy work load that's why my
inability to subscribe to your list for now.
I'm unable to keep up with the double subscription at the moment, due to
limitations of my hotmail account, and I will not buy extra disk space from
MS.Secondly,I don't have time to keep up with all the mails.There is a third
reason and I'll get to it later in this posting.
George,it's not about the cancer/hatred that is eating me up that i can't
share this with your listserv The Gambia Post.Is not also about the beef I
had with Yus.I regretted the collision with Yus and I have since apolize to
G-L for that encounter.I recognized Yusupha's courage apologizing to all on
G-L that he had an encounter with though,I did not publicly acknowledge
it,but deep in my heart I did.
Your reasons for me not subscribing to your list are totally out of line and
out of control but it is consistent with how you portray youself i.e,the
name calling and intolerance regarding differences in opinion/views.There is
a saying that and I quote " Jiko ak nyaw wie moh
borom ba pelle ba".
My reason for joining any list is to learn from the contributions on that
list and also for me to be able to  contribute to that list without
repercussions.I have no intention of being a dormant subscriber.

For your informatiom,I have been to your archieves and have read some of
your threaded posting,including the one you talk about my not have the
wherewithal regarding the all gambian organisation.

I standy by the objective of calling  all Gambians to come together and
I'm willing to do what ever it takes to achieve the objective even if it
means subscribing to your list, despite my concerns.


No hard feeling.

Beran
