Why couldn't you have just done this in the first place?  I personaly
found it nescesary to skip a large number of your articles and those
voting on the creation of net.singles.js.

So you think you have "solved the problem"?  Well, I didn't think it
was a problem, and I think your solution is itself a problem.  I.e., "I
don't like your articles, so why don't you go away and don't bother
me." It was my belief, perhaps naive, that this group was formed to
help people with problems like Jeff's, not have discussions on breast
sizes.

Oh well, we all still have our 'n' keys.
