Resorting to personal insults, when you should reinforce your arguments? I
was asking why you care about this so much. All your reasons seem to
devolve to "BL was accepted, then Amazon reneged. Foo on Amazon" - did you
read the agreement, where it said acceptance of BL as an amazon associate
could be revoked by either side, for any reason, at any time???
Sounds like free-market capitalism to me. Were you saying you are opposed
to capitalism?
