[CUBE] We NEED Slotload SuperDrives NOW!

[Thubten Kunga]

Dear Steve,
You completely misinterpret the meaning and intention of my message to 
Cyril. Even he understands that I meant nothing like the "lashing out" 
you are accusing me of.

I speak for 10% of the owners not your 90%, not just myself. However, 
this list is all about people speaking for themselves in case you 
didn't notice. I have just as much of a right to place my minority 
opinion on this list as you have to place your majority opinion. You 
are not the boss of this list and I have been very respectful to Cyril 
in my response. Not Rude. Nor vulgar. Nor disrespectful. He has 
respectfully acknowledged my concern off list and I have not hurt his 
feelings at all. In fact, we are friends of a sort.

So stop attacking me or anyone else on this list and grow up!

Kunga
