Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] PSUBS promo



Wow, that's bad!

I mean, the convention and PSUBS organisation was the whole point of the

I feel like the TV have stole something from the group. We will know where
to put those big "PSUBS.ORG" banners next time...

How do you feel about it John? I hope you aren't too desapointed.
