I was responsible for the 'quickly make this go away'
quote. This has nothing to do with character assassination
but everything to do with doing business with trustworthy
people. I have no intention of ever entering into a
business transaction with anyone who carries on as
CDZ has done when there are so many people in the world
who do not resort to legal remedies at the drop of
a hat.
If CDZ has any business accumen at all he would realise
that the action he is taking can only harm his business,
it is cetainly not going to encourage anyone to do
business with him, matters little even if he is right.
I suppose I am suggesting that gliderpilots should
band together to help other members of our comminity,
is there something wrong with that?

The analogy of 'rape victims' was in the context of
character
assassination, not copyright infringement and I make
no apology for it.

I personally find it very inappropriate to lump this
issue in with
'rape victims' and so forth. We're talking about
a few online gamers
who posted a picture in a website. Can we keep this
in perspective?


Until the dust settles, I think it's completely inappropriate
to be
urging a boycott of Mr. Zink's calendar.

After searching this thread I find that you are the
first to use the
term 'boycott'. No one here has urged any kind of
organized action
against purchases.
