We are not trying to hurt you, and I actually respect you and your efforts
very much, unfortunately the fact of the matter is Warren's conduct has become
untenable and apparently he has very much soured both of us. As you point
out, we are much older, I'm quite sure I was using a computer before Warren
was even born. I admit that doesn't mean much, but we certainly deserve
more respect and more appropriate behavior from him. Actually I have never
had a problem with anyone in the group besides Warren, but as I said before
I find his conduct totally unacceptable, and I regret donating in any way
to his efforts. I have also pointed out before that I'm a contributing and
respected member of the CLUE (Colorado Linux Users and Enthusiasts) group
in Denver Colorado, and have never experienced or seen anything similar.<br>

return the disk drive that I donated to Mid-Pac High school to be used

deserving organization which does not have a leader who constantly
insults persons who contribute financially to the cause of Linux and
open source. We will inform Mid-Pac of the reasons why we are asking
for its return.

Just realized that I don't have Warren Togami's e-mail address. Would
you please ask him to hand back to you the Athlon computer that I
personally delivered to him but apparently was never put in good use.
If you have any problem, please let me know.

Unreal and completely childish. Joe, you and I split the cost of a Western
Digital 120 gb hard drive for LUAU. This drive can not be returned to you.
Videl has been up for nearly 200 days. It cannot come down to return this
drive to you. I will personally buy you a replacement drive for the $100
that you donated. I do not know what Warren has done with the machine that
Wayne gave him. If there is any problem returning it, I will personally
purchase a complete and BETTER replacement for Wayne.
You and Wayne are much older than most of us. Warren had no business taking
some jab at you. He knows better. He is still a very young man, though. If
what he said was wrong, why respond in kind? You should know better; you are
an adult. Wayne is an adult, a professional lawyer. Now he wants you to get
a computer from Warren and LUAU that he gave Warren and the group. What, are
we in 5th grade or something? UNREAL.
You will have a replacement drive. Wayne will have his replacement computer.
I will buy both of these if needed. Please do the community a favor: take
your toys that you want back and grow up. We are trying to do some good
here. There is no time to deal with your hurt feelings. If the best you can
do is ask for material goods back, take them and be on your merry way. I
have plenty of money to replace your "gifts." You will not hurt us with this
action.
