Well, then, maybe they should stop using email.  After all, that protocol
goes back to at least 1975.

I am sick of these assholes who denigrate a medium simply because
it's origin goes back a few decades.

Communication protocols don't have "best buy" dates.  They are
valid forever.

I am reminded of the Micro$oft strategy that tried to discredit
Linux because it was based upon Unix which is an "ancient" OS.

Fuck Micro$soft and fuck YOU.

Usenet is still very much viable as is IRC.  All that is required
is for more people to start using it -- again.

The case is closed.
