Re: [Bug-ddrescue] Skipping over tar pits

[Scott Dwyer]

I have had email correspondence with Lou, and don't think that it was 
intentional spamming.

I don't take back what I said about spinrite, and many would support that.

So I am sorry to Lou for flaming so hard, but still stand by my post in 
the overall context.

Regards,
Scott

   Just do a search on it, look in hard drive recovery forums.
   This is the worst and most damaging spam possible. WTF

   Antonio, sorry if this post is a bit harsh, but your bug list just
   got spammed by something evil.
