[Asterisk-Users] Why should I answer a Newbie question, therethick!

[Vincent]

Hi all,

You don't want to be fooled by Race Vanderdecken. This guy has NO
business ethic. When He refused to realize a business deal in which I
agreed to pay for his coding help for me, will he personally pay for
the hosting of the list? More interestingly, he mentioned in the list
that he lives in  in Timbuktu, Ontario while he told me that he lives
in Asheville, North Carolina but home number is a Hendersonville, NC
phone number. I was just updated that according to the phone company
records that is not the name of the person the phone number is
associated with.

Regards,
Vincent
