Todd,

Maybe instead of spending your time suing some punk, who swore and
didn't know any better, to get him thrown out of school, *you* should
learn to spell and write correct English.  Look at your post, the
English is atrocious.  I'm not sure which is worse, a young adult
using vulgar terms, or a person, who can't spell or write, suing 
him.  :-/

You should also be careful how you proceed as even *he* could
produce E-Mail from *you* that `proves' you did the same thing.
For all we know, you have some other reason for wanting to see him
get kicked out of school, and you have created nasty E-Mail from
him.  *Any* unix hacker worth his name could create forged E-Mail.
*Anyone* could put what looks like mail in a file and say it is
real and call foul.  UseNet mail is not legally binding for these
reasons.

Look, I don't know either party in this matter, but it seems more
than just a bit childish.  I would suggest that no one help this guy.
Maybe we should all examine our own lives before attacking others.

PS to Todd, what is getting him thrown out of school going to do for
you besides, boast your ego?  Be the better man and teach him a
lesson that he will remember for some time, instead of hurting
him for the rest of his life.  I mean, what's your point?  Do you think
somehow that this guy, by using vulgar language directed at you
is worth your time and effort to get him thrown out of school?  If
so, I would suggest that you have too much time on your hands.  If
you claim that you are doing it for the principle of it, then I would
suggest you rethink the punishment you are about to inflict upon him
and ask yourself whether or not it fits the crime.  I think not.
