Good on him. We need more people like Sam.
Visions like this thrive on quality 'net connections, so one has to wonder
how many Sam Morgans have been stifled by our current environment.

He started by spamming these news groups.

I see you didn't go easy on him Brendan. Then again, there hasn't been
much spam here in nz.comp, so big ups to you.

Interesting to see people go from there to here. Quite inspiring
really.

I bet Thompson feels really big now, he will be drinking out on
this for an hour with his only friend. I can just imagine it "I
said "**** off" to a multi millionaire once." piped Brendan. "Go
on Brens, you didn't." "Yes I did" squeaks our Brendan.

Good on Sam, I'm glad to see that he didn't let a petty minded
spitefu,l little Oamaruvian put him off.

I rather think the words "petty minded" and "spiteful" suit you better
bitch.

You got nothing better to do than trawl a computer group just to carry on a
personal vendetta?

Put that little dick back in your pants and go home to your momma, you're
embarrassing yourself.
