Roy and myself post independently and I don't care to check to see if the
subject matter has already been covered by Roy. However, all your concerns
seem rather petty and inconsequential with no real support from other
posters that may share your opinion.
At the least, Roy hasn't complained to me.
BTW, with all respect to Roy, I do believe that I have been posting news
stories worthy of the group before Roy... bout 5 years now; however, he is
far more prodigal.
