> sorry, what happens if we do?

Nothing, the reason I asked the thread not to be replied to was save
needless traffic of full of people's personal opinions on the list which
has
no relevance to the HA theme of this list, as well as being one of those
"emotive" subjects. Pretty much like your response was.

The other reason was that the O2 threads had been asked to be closed on the
list, this was purely for information, what part of "do not
reply" was hard
to grasp for you?

Chris worked for O2, that's it everyone knew that and no-one IMHO has any
right to pry into his personal business with an ex-employer from this group
even if they were customers of that company that's just plain rude and
stupid IMO. Chris didn't so much sell it as tried to get us all a deal on
it
given the volume from UKHA, I don't see any problem there do you? And your
contention that Chris is somehow responsible for an ex-employers action is,
quite frankly, so stupidly ridiculous I can't believe anyone would even
think that let alone post it!

The details of Chris's dispute with O2 are nothing to do with you, me or
anyone else on this group, if there's an issue with O2 then it's with O2
and
the people responsible for providing the service now, not in the past.

O2 Hoster can be found in the companies register if you had bothered to
check it I'm sure if you look and it's not O2 the telecoms provider.

So if you have nothing to do with it why on earth did you see the need to
basically stir it up then?

Well John all I can say is that I'm not impressed.
