Obviously, he knows next to nothing. He said:

which shows he knows nothing about you seeing as your not a programmer, and 
it would have been more appropriate to e-mail you directly and  not to the 
list. If he has any feeling about this matter, it's between you and him, the A
SSEMBLY 86 list doesn't care about this, this is for ASM programmers trying 
to get help. Please keep non-A86 topics off of the A86 list, since that is 
what makes A86 one of the better mailing list from ticalc.org.


Thankyou,

 certainly not democracy.  They even justified the coordinator system from the
 very start by saying that the whole staff wasn't competent enough to make
 decisions as a whole, and the coordinators needed to be there to make the
 decisions.  Now that is not government of the people, by the people, and for 
the
 power.  Anyway...
 
 If you weren't around from March - April of 1999, then I can see why you 
don't
 know what I'm talking about.  As I said in my previous post, I'll work on 
some
 kind of website/document that explains all this stuff.
