	Your not the only person who Atari has tried to keep quiet. 
About 2 years ago Neil Harris told the sysops on one of the commercial
networks that if I didn't stop "harassing" him online he would quit showing
up.  They wouldn't have a "official represenative of Atari" online anymore.
I was sent a copy of his email along with a note saying I could do what 
I wanted.  I continued to comment on his postings so he left for a two
months or so.

	About the time he returned I started ignoring all postings from 
all Atari represenatives on the networks.  None of what they were saying
was worth the time it took to read it.  How much vaporware can you be
expected to put up with?
