Blanket reply -- since I don't read any of the groups that Rich Rosen
[allegedly] terrorizes, I can't comment on his actions, but:

If someone's volume is *really* that incredible and *really* that
obnoxious and *really* that repetitive, and if said person refuses to
be swayed by common sense or any sense of netiquette, then perhaps that
person's management would like to receive an anonymous paper copy of all
that person's postings for a month or so with the dates AND TIMES of
posting circled in red.  Be forewarned, however, that this might cause
the loss of net access for that user's entire user community, so one
should take care.  I know that here and most other places I know of,
peer pressure is enough to squelch a postaholic; perhaps if you mail
your intentions to the '"root" of the problem' site you might get some
action that way.

'Nuff said,
