[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] WTF?

[Mike Rhodes]

I find it interesting that someone finds a comment made over the air between
two acquaintances horrific and offensive on behalf of the recipient.  Yet he
finds it perfectly acceptable to send an email to an entire group of people
he doesn't know with the subject line of WTF.

To each his own.
