> > please can you tell to the list, that I don't know your special days in
> > America. There were two bad messages
> > which brought me up to decide to quit the list. Sorry for these persons,
> > who would like to see and hear me
> > at the list. But I've been shocked with the mail by the ferreters.
> > with best shelling greetings
