[Coco] Help with usb

Tue Sep 17 12:19:10 EDT 2019

It was an unnecessarily sarcastic response to my August 1 request for information regarding the coco blast DVD. That Aug 1st post was attached to the bottom of his USB stick question as to not leave any confusion as the reason for his query.

I had found that the dvd,(at the time lost) was full of old SIG messages  and I was attempting to archive the posts that I had personally participated in back in the day

Ignoring my plea for help would have been less hurtful than attaching an irrelevant question to my original post ;in a clear attempt to mock it

 I agree with Terry. Albeit the plea for help seems unrelated to the cocoblast DVD and it would have been better for Jim to start a new thread, I didn't see his request for help as an action against you.

I for one have enjoyed your videos and your experiments. It is because of you that I was motivated to get that Intel on a stick and will most likely need help when I can get to it. I certainly would like to hear from you. If not through this list, then privately, however you feel most comfortable. I consider you a valued member of this community and know it would be a loss for us if you left under these circumstances. Best, Salvador

 Did I miss something?  Rietveld can you please elaborate on what has
offended you enough to leave the CoCo community.  With the size of the
community, I would hate to think you left due to a misunderstanding.
Please let me know what we can do to help.

Terry
