If they continue to be problems, they're banned from the bar. Yes!!! everyone needs the chance to flame at times, but when that's all they do nobody wants to be around them. If you feel the drastic need to beat the hell out of the other patrons, take it outside - send e-mail to the individual instead of to everybody. ALL e-mails have the originating address. We already have one local redneck bar where the patrons beat each other up and the band has a chicken wire cage around it to protect it from flying debris. Let's get back to the real issues here. DIVING and getting as much real information as possible. Nissa - OH!! if anyone is interested in flaming me privately my email address is NHL1@vi*.ne*. {My soap box off} +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Please send messages for the WreckDiver list to: wreckdiver@wreckdiver.com Send subscription and help requests to: wreckdiver-request@wreckdiver.com +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
