This post exhibits the feelings I mentioned earlier. Somehow I should feel
grateful to
Randy for OMNI and probably for something else. I don't get this mindset, sorry. I'm a customer. I've spent money subscribing to IF in the past and spend money each year to sidestep the advertisements.
I shouldn't have to explain why I want to question a decision that I, frankly, find capricious (not arbitrary, but capricious). And I shouldn't have to feel gratitude that someone doesn't pull the plug on OMNI or FT entirely. If that's what happens, it happens. Something would fill the void in the marketplace and in my life.
