I'm not going to get into a stupid arguement over anything that has happened.. what's done is done. But here are the facts......

1. I did announce that the afterhours Website was going down. For those of you who do not understand the difference between a "website" and a "BBS", learn a little about the net before commenting any further because further rants make you appear ignorant. (either that or eat your own soup)

2. I planned (and always had planned) to maintain the "Current Events" and "Off Topic" BBS's at a new site which I had planned to call "AlStaley.com".... Along with a slightly different format, the site would have included the "Make me Laugh" BBS and of course the "Chosen Ones" would have remained since only non confrontational people and those with an IQ above 90 have access to it...

3. Justin decided to move the Afterhours Space BBS to another server when he was the moderator, not owner of the system. The point that is lost here is that while he was moderating the BBS, it was still mine. Of course that didn't stop Justin from making a deal to use a Robert Shepard Domain Name (???????) and planning on moving MY BBS with MY users to the Habitablezone.com BBS. Of course, this issue was moot when I shut the BBS down after the BBS users (Mr. Shepard & Mr. Brosz) expressed their support for the "work" of Chronos, a failure of a human being who society has decided is qualified to do nothing but cook my french fries on days when I wish to slum it. Yet these guys think that we should "respect" the work of this loser (who hides behind a silly alias) yet claims to have the solutions for world improvement.

I don't wish to argue the aforementioned point. If you are one who wishes to attend scientific conferences and refer to the "research" of "Chronos" to PhD's, that's your business. I'm simply trying to keep the story straight....

4. Justin accounces that he has been getting a lot of emails telling him to duplicate the "Current Events", "Off Topic" and "Chosen Ones" BBS's. He says he is leaning towards doing CE & OT and leaning towards NOT duplicating the CO's.

5. Current Events and Off Topic have been duplicated destroying the afterhours/alstaley.com versions....

Hey, what's done is done. Justin is a Big time BBS Sysop now. Good luck in this wonderful line of work Justin...

Afterhours WILL now be back, but not as an interactive site. I've learned my lesson. It will be back as an informational site (I'd go into some detail but Justin would duplicate my ideas before I ever got them up)...

Screwing me over on my hobby is one thing Justin, but I hope you do grow up one day. Otherwise, you'll simply be a "Chronos", a BIG Internet "Researcher" while flipping hamburgers and crying that "I'll never be able to afford a CD-R"!
