Nobody does care - so why are you still carrying on about it? We get it. Olaf doesn't like Anthony. Anthony doesn't like Olaf. We don't care about the historical reasons or about any recent developments.

As I originally suggested, take it offline. The arguments on both sides sound petty and are becoming immature. There are better uses for the message board.

: : Losing your temper Olaf? I give you level argument and you reply with expletives?

: "Jackass" isn't an expletive. M-W.com lists: "a stupid person : FOOL" as the second definition (the first being a male donkey). I supposed etymologically it comes from donkeys having certain behavioral traits that some people through history have emulated.

:
: : As an operator of a supposed information resource, you have a responsibility to check your facts before stating, let alone, asserting them.

: : - I must have dreamt that I took classes with April in Cambridge this week if as you say she "doesn't come to Boston any more"...

: Forgive me, I mean "regularly". When I say "I don't go to New York", that would be technically incorrect too.

: Furthermore, this is the message board, not the Washington Post.

: : - As to my "insisting that TL not permit said flyers" that is pure and self serving fabrication on your part. I communicated a preference, nothing more. Insistence and threats are your methods not mine.

: Perhaps "whined" would have been a better word choice.

:
: : Despite your smoke screen eruptions, my point stands that it is a conflict of interest to run an information service and an entertainment service. It's anti-competitive under the best of intentions, and given your demonstrated willfulness and vindictiveness it's worse.

: I'm sorry, I don't understand. From what I can glean by that argument, shouldn't you shut down then too? What is it you're trying to effect?

: Furthermore, how is it that I'm anti-competitive? I was the one that continued to list Aprilon2 activities for years despite the abuse from her and you (some of which she at least had the guts to personally apologise for), whereas you for example just affirmed your actions about Sundays above in the same breath as you called me "anti-competitive" and whatnot else, never mind the carefully worded [de]listings on your site of SalsaBoston events. As the say, "WTF".

: So now, I'm just fed up. I started this site as a hobby, eventually was asked and was interested in doing events, continue to do them for enjoyment _and_ as an income source for myself, my staff, and partners, and continue to run the site as a mostly unpaid endeavour, all of which most people quite frankly really appreciate. It's just the few clowns like you that come along and sometimes make me want to go do something better with my time.

: But you know what, Anthony, NOBODY CARES. Go away. Please.

: Regards,
: -Olaf
