   Okay, so I'm banned.   
      
   Nothing I can do about that so we don't need to discuss it now,va decade later.   
      
   > The Sunday Sampler was a *magazine,* not a Usenet thread.   
      
   Okay, if you say so.   
      
   > Magazines have guidelines.   
      
   Not on a Usenet newsgroup thread.   
      
   > You and xxxxxxx felt that Jim was imposing guidelines on AAPC, so you   
   balked, and did everything you could to undermine them.   
   >   
   > But Jim was laying the foundations for a magazine.  And those of us who   
   treated it as such, found it to be the most rewarding Usenet experience.   
      
   I'm glad Jim Senetto left something behind to be remembered for.   
      
   > Those who didn't (you and xxxxxxx ) missed out on something truly special.   
      
   I still doubt either Zod or I would ever have been included, but it's a nice   
   daydream.   
      
   > And so it went.   
      
   Okay, it's all over now, no reason to really discuss it with me.   
      
   I'm banned, the S.S. has nothing to do with me.   
      
   End of story.
