From my memory, it was Gilmore that decided "Something Must
Be Done", and they came up with the idea of the three separate
lists--which Vulis then sabotaged by posting something potentially
libelous about Stronghold--a product of the company Sandy was working
for--this post didn't make it into any of the three lists (edited,
rejects, unedited), and everything blew up.
If I remember correctly, this happened in either January, or
Feburary. I'm going to try to get an old disk on line this week, I'll
take a look and see if I have anything left from then.

"To sum up: The entire structure of antitrust statutes in this
country is a jumble of economic irrationality and ignorance. It is a
product: (a) of a gross misinterpretation of history, and (b) of
rather naïve, and certainly unrealistic, economic theories." Alan
