How so? I was making ONE POINT, and only ONE POINT, that
Ray Goldenberg has no business spamming in rec.travel.cruise!
I said "for whatever Roand and Fred were quibbling about", Fred
was spot on when "he told Roland" ...
I said what Fred told YOU. Not a word about what YOU said.
It didn't matter to me whatever you said. I thought you were
arguing about the druids. As I said I learned only later that
Ray Goldenberg was deep that pile of rubbles you two were
argueing about.

That's correct. So is my use of "Reef Fish" as a posting name.
But Spammer Ray jumped all over that and equated my posting
with an "anonymous re-mailer" that people have used to hide their
identity.
If Ray had used the SAME sig file, but engage in regular
DISCUSSIONS within the group about various travel questions
raised by discussants, I would have had no problem with his
posts.
The difference is that he is using his "I have this press release ..."
as a thinly disguised prop for his SPAM that made his sig file a
non-issue. He is SPAMMING this group, at the rate of half a dozen
or spams served everyday.
When he was actually discussing the Manhatten pier for the
Princess cruiseship with a clueless Old Lady, offering NON-
information (that later turned out to be FALSE information as
well) that I asked him about his reference to the Liberty port.
He didn't answer, nor did anyone else in the group. So I just
took about an hour of my time phoing a few places and came
back with the SOLID and EXPLICIT info about how to come and
go to hte pier from the Newark airport (the EASIEST thing in
the world when the Old Ladies were making it as if it would take
hours to come or go. It took me less than an hour. So, I posted
the INFO for future cruisers going to that Mahattan port.
And Dickhead Goldhaber flamed me for asking Ray an honest
QUESTION and getting a silent reply. Other posters had indicated
they had phoned Ray, and was told that Ray would answer only if
they PAY.
Now if THAT is not SPAMMING and the act of a SPAMMING TA
who would not lift his tiny finger to help anyone, I don't know WHAT
this cretin Ray could be called.
Get the picture?
My post was, and is, all about Ray's SPAMMING.
Now I leave it back to you and Fred to fight out about whatever
you were fighting above.
