NOBODY@NOWHERE.ORG stated the following:
Just a short note to help get you up to speed here.
Winter is a well known psychotic from the Fido network, who
runs/Moderates a Christless echo called HOLY_BIBLE (more commonly
known as HOLY_BABBLE).
Unfortunately, the name of the mail area hides the actual fact
that the echo is nothing more than a place for Steve to spout his
canned doctrinal hateful posts.
Any poster who posts anything that is in disagreement with Steve's
"version" of the Bible is immediately hit with feed cut demands, and
complaints against the operator of the system where the message
originated.
Steve claims the person is "disrupting" his echo, and follows with
his normal name calling.
Notice that Steve allows NO one to post anything that he is in
disagreement with. Anyone who disagrees with him is being disruptive.
You may have realized that this "disruptive" behavior that Steve
so hates in his Fido echo, and absolutely refuses to tolerate, is
exactly the same behavior he is displaying in the various
Internet news groups.
He won't allow any of that in HIS echo, but he is demanding that
you allow him to do this here despite many requests that he stop.
He can dish it out, but he can't seem to take it.
Hypocritical of this, wouldn't you say?
Some points to think about. Many of those who disagree with
Steve find themselves geting calls from him, "cursing" them (there
is a funny WAV file floating around of one of these calls...).
Apparently Steve does not think that calls of that nature are
harrassing to anyone else.
If you want a copy of this WAV file, post me a note in
one of the Christnet echo (to RABANUS@SSTAR.COM) and I will
send it to you. There is also a collection of JPG files
that are also available. Just ask...
He will try to contact your employer, if he can find out where you
work, and try to have you fired from your job. There are many cases of
this happening, so do not disbelieve this.
He routinely calls various police agencys in attempts to have
people arrested for harrassing him (his word for disagreeing with
him).

SW> anonymous call that you placed here (St Mary's County
SW> Sheriff's complaint # 31142-94)
BM> I checked...they never heard of this...
He filed the complaint in response to my 2 calls to his 800 number
were I left him voice mail to quit calling my wife and I and harassing
us. The Sheriffs that called me asked what was up because Steve had
flooded there office with Fax's I told him the situation and he agreed
that Steve was some kind of religious nut and asked me not to call his
800# again.. He said the guy in his letters and on the phone sounded
like a fanatic..
He had made several of his usual phone calls to us and in one case
made my wife cry she being from Japan and only having been here for
about a month she had never received a threatening phone call this is
when it became personal and I called him on his dime since he likes to
pay to call people so much...
He was also instructed by the sherifs dept not to call me again or he
would be facing real charges..
This was way back in December. They dismissed the complaint based
upon a 5 minute phone call he also filled a complaint against another
individual in the local area same exact results the complaint was
dropped..
Then not to be deterred Steve started posting our names, Phone
numbers and address's in National echos. My company attorney has
collected quite a portfolio on Mr Winters and if he ever try's anything
again we have enough material on him to have one hell of a nice time
down in Durham NC..

This echo has been under vicious attack by some real low life

HOLY_BIBLE has been a valid backbone echo since 1991.

1. This echo *IS* a valid FidoNet backbone echo and is only
being hindered by an act of vandalism of several corrupt FidoNet
officials who are soon to meet their legal "Waterloo". No one
or no group has the authority to remove a valid FidoNet backbone
echo from distribution as was done with this echo.
2. My nodes being removed from the nodelist was also an illegal
action by corrupt officials who are quite soon going to be face
to face with the legal consequences of their actions. The delay
in action is only due to proper preparation and research.
3. Anyone who seeks to damage me based upon any of the above
will possibly be adding themselves to the list of defendants
in the ensuing action(s).
4. It is my intention to endure the expense to pursue whatever
action that is necessary to restore this echo and my nodelistings
to their rightful place AND to collect damages for the recent
events from those responsible.
There are people out there who need to hear the truth. It is for
their benefit that we endure.

And just what do you plan on doing when it's not? Do you really
have the nerve to sue Bruce Bodger because he won't do you a favor?
What do you plan on doing when high-volume routers refuse to carry

that they can't access the conference, are you going to sue
individual sysops, too, because they won't do you a favor, either?
If users won't read the conference, are you going to sue them, too?

===================================================================
Here are the facts.
On 02 October 1994, as ZEC, and after discussing the matter with
the other RECs, I made the decision to remove HOLY_BIBLE from
FIDONET.NA. This was intended to be a permanent removal, not a
temporary one. The current ZEC has seen reason to amend that to
a fixed term removal, which I respect.
Later, the current ZEC (amongst others) received a copy of a
message, indicating that Steve Winter had hired an attorney to
represent him regarding the removal of the HOLY_BIBLE echo from
Fidonet.Na as well as his removal from the nodelist. The ZEC then
called the lawyer who felt that his client had some valid points
and hoped that they could work out an agreement that would satisfy
both sides.
Later, the ZEC informed the lawyer of his decision, but the latter
was not fully satisfied. The ZEC has stated that he made no
guarantees and no promises other than to allow the moderator(s)
to reapply after the 90 days had expired and that the application
would be subject to the same criteria as others. He also made it
clear that there is no guarantee that the echo could not be
re-removed in the future if there weren't some 'adjustments' made
from the 'other side'.
According to the ZEC, the attorney acted more as a mediator
rather than a trial lawyer, and there was never a lawsuit filed.
He feels that there isn't one FidoNet "official" who wouldn't prefer
to negotiate a settlement rather than face the possibility of
having to spend what could amount to thousands of
dollars to defend himself from what amounts to a frivolous
lawsuit.
I have made it clear that I disagree with the decision to reinstate
the echo. I feel it important to make that known since I have to
represent Region 17's viewpoint on matters such as this. What may
not be clear is that despite this 'professional disagreement', I
am a strong supporter of the current ZEC and his objectives, the
contrary of which may have been inferred from the above post.
His decision to permit reapplication for 'boning' by HOLY_BIBLE
and the reservation of the tag for a month is a decision which
is the ZEC's to make, and I respect that, just as the RECs
respected my decision to remove the echo when I was ZEC.
I hope that makes my position clear, since my regional comments
have now been transferred to a zone-wide forum.

If you feel the need to discuss Steve's behavior on the Internet

or your home phone - seeing he can dish it out, but can't seem to
take it. As you see in some of the examples above, reasoning and
rational discussion do not work with this lunatic, so be careful
if you choose to call.
Remember, your calls will be on *HIS* dime - so make sure you
