 Uhm?  Sorry, I haven't scanned your other mail yet (I will respond to
it when I find the time for it, am a little bit stressed a little bit),
but you are simply lying here. This is what your original mail had in
it:

Subject: Web pages/Debian/languages: Great!
From: Royandrecrabtree@aol.com
To: debian-www@lists.debian.org
Cc: roy.crabtree@alumni.unc.edu, crabtreeroy@hotmail.com, ricardo.hernandez@rocketmail.com
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2003 17:53:47 EDT

 It is nice to say that others sent it to debian-www when it was
original yourself who did it.  I personally was speaking about the Ccs
that you had in your original mails, like stated here above.

> I did not put this on the list.

 Then the original mail was from someone else who mails as
<Royandrecrabtree@aol.com> and signs with Roy Andrew Crabtree.  If you
like I can check the Received headers for you so we can find the
injecting host?

 Debian is an open project and it communicates open. Therefore most of
the addresses you find on our webpages point to mailing lists.

> 2)  I made a mistake or did this intentionally and am unwiling to admit it.

 Might be possible, yes.  At least it seems that you haven't noticed
that the address is debian-www@lists.debian.org.  Please notice the
lists -- might be a slightly hint.

 And included some interesting points of view?  Would be a cool virus .)

 Yeah, blaming others is always a good idea.

 No problem at all on our parts, no need to push it further....

 Why should we have done it?  "Post here, discuss here" (usenet jargon)
I have seen nothing that made me thing that you haven't sent the mail on
intention to the list. It is quite common that mails sent to a list are
discussed on the list, so there is nothing that I am feeling sorry for.
If you like to take it off list then please stop Cc'ing
debian-www@lists.debian.org, but you won't be able to receive answers
then :)

 Which?

 Which attach?  Sorry, I don't see any attack here.

 No, you didn't.

 So long,
Alfie
