Especially one that doesn't realize quitting is the best course of action. Ken, give it up, the net will offer you grattitude for coming to your senses. I love to watch people who break many if not all of the rules of the net and then get upset when somebody speaks out against it. All I can think of is a spoiled brat that gets real upset and threatens to "hold thie breath till they turn blue" when someone criticizes them. If you wanted to be remembered, you sure succeeded; people will remember Ken as "that asshole who runs all over the net like an immature brat". You want to flame, fine. Keep in the guidelines, or someone is letter bomb you. I don't see how your SA lets you still subscribe to the net. Actually I don't see why I am trying to talk sense to you Ken. As for my trying to grab attention, try again. I don't jump up and down and flame for the sake of flaming. I will poke up out of the net to make a point. If you want to flame at me, I wish you would use mail. Your ravings are in no way adding to the value of the net. In fact I would say that your antics are doing their best at damaging the integrity of the people who use the net. Since you zapped me in public, here's my reply. Everybody else thinks of you as a runaway AI project. If you don't beleive me, here's a small sample. /* Written 9:44 am Mar 16, 1985 by ssc-vax!ssc-va in pbear:net.space */ > Over on net.astro someone (Ken A.) indicated that a body named > 1983 TB was due to actually hit the Earth in the year 2115. > ... For your information, Ken A. is a glitch in the UUCP software. This glitch has been around for quite some time and no one seems to know how to cure it. It pops up at random on the net and posts nonsense that can sometimes fool the unwary. It is possible that this glitch might be in the hardware at some unknown site (loose connection?) in which case it will probably go away after a while. ... By the way...if you want to study the effects of the UUCP glitch mentioned above, try subscribing to net.flame, net.politics, and net.religeon. It is especially virulent there. I hope it doesn't run its full course through this group or we will all have to unsubscribe. Tom Pace ihnp4!uw-beaver!ssc-vax!atst /* End of text from pbear:net.space */ Peter Barada ima!pbear!peterb
