Re: [atlarge-discuss] Re: FC: Nancy Carter, who is suing Canadian ISP, replies to Politech



Hello Jeff, listreaders and stakeholders,

First of all, I am a member of INEGroup.  I joined the
Canadian chapter of INEG a couple of weeks ago.  If you
remember, we had a discussion on this list (see
archives for details).

Second of all, if INEGroup has over 127,000 members, do
you know them all PERSONALLY?  INEGroup is an
international organization with chapters all over the
world.  Seriously, you can't claim to know if I am a
member or not.

Thirdly, I will provide proof of my membership in INEG
to anyone who requests it (off-list of course).

And in the meantime, as a member of INEGroup, I will
speak my opinion freely on this list.  It is my right
as an INEG member.

Thank you, 

Tim
