Re: [feature request] linked next/previous emails

Hi, Spencer.

You've been a regular in these newsgroups long enough that you SHOULD know
better! Either you've never really read the MVP page, or you've chosen to
misunderstand what you read. :>( Did you overlook the phrase, "awarded for
voluntarily sharing", there?

http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?lc=1033

Once more: An MVP is NOT a Microsoft employee! Microsoft does not give us
orders or require reports, weekly or otherwise. We are strictly volunteers.
IF I receive an MVP Award again on October 1, 2008, it will be for help I've
already voluntarily provided, mostly in these newsgroups, before that date.
The MVP Award is a "thank you", not a contract.

There is a MAJOR difference between Microsoft employees, who usually include
[MS} or [MSFT] in their Sig in these newsgroups, and MVPs, who may or may
not include the MVP designation in their posts.

Pity the poor Microsoft employees whose job it is to try to manage us! They
say it is "like herding cats" because we are so darn outspoken and
independent. We DO NOT and WILL NOT make weekly reports - to anybody!

OK?
