Here is an excerpt from his connection info message: Please specify if your L.sys info can be sent to other Bell System sites, or if it should be kept private on ihnp4. I suspect that a lot of people read right past that and don't realize what it says. I know I did. If you have ever had any dealings with Gary, you know that he is dedicated and professional about his work. I know everyone on the net is sick and tired of apologies, but let me offer mine to Gary if I have helped to tarnish his reputation. Let me also thank the folks at ihnp4 for volunteering to be a uucp central clearing house. It's a job I wouldn't want, and I think it has helped all of us more than it has helped them.
