No we didnt. We got a half assed job listing all Roy's garbage and a
quadrillion repeated email headers.
We, or I maybe, asked for some common sense : list article headers and
the links to the original posts next to them.
Not a list of repeated headers then the whole lot *again* interspersed with
Roy's email address and his inane comments.
For someone who espouses to be so intelligent, you sure made a mess of a
relatively simple concept.
