Ordinarily, ten years of Usenetting had made my skin thick enough to tolerate just about anything until I came across Mr Barretts posting about Mr Gould and Mr Ali. The sort of statements he made in that posting benefit no one. Perhaps it is his thing to watch the ripples generated in Usenet by his postings, but we should no more tolerate his sort of nonsense than we tolerate someone yelling fire in a darkened theater. >If you (like me) do not have a rn program that can kill authors and not just >subjects...well the n key still works. Look, if you want to stick your head in the sand, that is your prerogative. I want to see Barrett off the net until he demonstrates a reasonable level of maturity and respect for others. > A| Nigel Tzeng - STX Inc. - xrtnt@csdr.gsfc.nasa.gov Rick Spanbauer State U of NY/Stony Brook
