  I recall that back in the day of the" one size fits all"
Vanagon@Lenti list, there was one listee who was appalled at the
presence of list vendors to the point that he went away.  I, for one,
don't miss the rants.

  As for the matter of animosity between vendors, we had a notable
example who refused to play well with others- he pissed off vendors
and fellow listers as well and succeeded succeeding in getting himself
banned in the end.

  The man participates over at the Samba website, but is still as
argumentative as ever.
