It's annoying me as they are hindering my ability to see my REAL
posts.

I feel like infecting hip-crime with trojan horse that will steal all
their info -- including credit card numbers -- and give it to the rest
of the world. I want to burn hip-crime with oxyacetylene flames and
cause them grave-suffering. I want to burn the skins of whoever runs
hipcrime. I want to turn their skins into white foam by thermally-
denaturing their skins with oxyacetylene flames. I hope someone --
with less control over their anger than me -- sets hipcrime's
personnel on fire and gives them a slow, painful, yet sure way out of
existence.

RESULT
remove comp.sources.delphi

The Big-8 Management Board has decided by consensus to remove the

02 Jul 2006.

This group will be removed on 07 Jul 2006.

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:

There were no comments made.

RATIONALE: Remove comp.sources.delphi

The last approved message was in April 2002.

There are other more suitable means of distributing program sources,
so comp.sources.delphi is not a suitable candidate for conversion to an
unmoderated newsgroup.

HISTORY:

The newsgroup comp.sources.delphi was created in April 1996, with the
first approved message in May 1996.
