This message was in factچ not penned by Mr. Henderson. It was an attempt by ourselves to implyچ that the recent illicit activities taking place in the net wereچ caused by Mr. Henderson. This has never been proven. The messageچ in question was in fact written by the two of us. We have no excuseچ other than our own childish stupidity. This has resulted in our own چ More[Y,n] discredit. We can only offer our sincere apologies to Mr.چ Wong and Mr. Henderson. In addition, we apologize to the entireچ network for our infantile behavior. This could only take place givenچ the current level of distrust and deceit in the network. In lightچ of the actions we have taken, and the blow that our credibility has چ taken, we find it necessary to step down from our respective positionsچ in the network. The positions of "Opus_INFO 'here'", Nationalچ Echomail Coordinator, and Sysop Echomail Moderator are now vacant.چ We trust you will make the proper choices for the new appointees forچ these positions.

I know he may be a friend of yours,چ and I wont say Im glad, but I feel somewhat satisfied tat they mangedچ managed to go one step too far. Finster did some terrible attacks onچ me and others, including Ken Kaplan, as low as racial slurs in someچ cases. Very bad vibes to say the least. He made things up from wholeچ cloth. I skip this, its old news, old sores. Just a reminder thatچ things like this have happened, info was fabricated, and that peopleچ should watch what people DO, not what they MIGHT or COULD do. Thisچ isnt "to" you, this is just a passing comment, really! There's no tچ many that would understand it, thats all, since very few people aroudچ today saw that stuff. Thats all!
