I'm simply reporting facts. I'm not engaged in any contest.

Total nonsense (as usual). I have no position on alt.cellular.t-mobile, or
any other newsgroup, past, present, or future.

I will continue to post the charter for this newsgroup as long as that seems
to be useful.
>Actually, is there a significant charter for alt.cellular.attws?
Why not look it up for yourself?

Hmm, he claims he has no position, yet he argued voraciously against
alt.cellular.t-mobile! alt.cellular.t-mobile was to end the confusion
over the newsgroup with the name of a non-existent carrier.
There may be another possible explanation as to why he was against it.
Since he constantly shills for Cingular, he may not like the fact that
T-Mobile has been doing much better than Cingular in all the independent
surveys, AND he may not like the fact that T-Mobile is really the only
carrier with multi-national operations that include the U.S. (you can't
really count Vodafone with Verizon).
I don't think we'll ever know the real reasons for his behavior.
Certainly we shouldn't count on ever getting the truth from Navas!

Wrong again. I simply listed that as one of the arguments against a new
newsgroup.

You just don't like that I show your many fabrications for what they are.

He's not nuts. Usually there's something behind it when he comes out so
strongly against something that makes perfect sense to everyone else.
When he attacks surveys from JD Power, Consumer Reports, ACSI, etc.,
it's pretty easy to figure out why he's so upset--he constantly shills
for Cingular, and Cingular consistently does very poorly in those
surveys so it's almost his job to attack those surveys with any
rationalization that he can come up with, no matter how patently ridiculous.
In this instance, it has to be related to his opposition to new Usenet
groups being formed when a company changes identities. While it makes
sense to everyone else to form a new group that corresponds to the
actual name of the company, to him it means that the group he formed is
in danger of disappearing in a few years.

Unfortunately, some are fundamentally wrong as they are not found on
Google and not within your realm of professional experience.

Wrong on all counts. Why am I not surprised.

Where? Certainly not in the cellular groups. You avoid facts at every
opportunity and simply post links to very poorly written, non-authoritative
and far from mainstream content. Anybody can Google to find crap, but you
are indeed the champion. I doubt that you understand half of what you
present as "fact".

They did, actually. They were in the Seattle
market, at least.

Sorry, I didn't know that. In California, we never had Voicestream. We
got T-Mobile when Cingular and T-Mobile had an agreement where they each
provided coverage where the other lacked it. New York City was the major
area that Cingular gained.

You didn't post any arguments for the newsgroup, which has a fairly broad
support (you were just about the only critic).
