Re: email threat



Bruce, if you are actually in fear for your life the police are the right
forum for this.  It appears that you are trying to once again publicly
defame Eric in front of the Linux community.  This message is about
embarrassment and character assassination hid beneath a patina of fear.

Regardless of what your differences are with Eric this message should not
have been posted to this list.
