[Usual offensive signature omitted.] You have to admire someone who is so dedicated to having his own way rather than learning from pain, really you do. Getting roasted for forging approval notices, for posting unauthorized unmoderating newgroup messages, for cancelling other peoples' postings, for lying in public about it all and telling a different, contradictory story about how it all happened an average of every two weeks, none of this criticism has had the slightest effect on iron man John. Postings from folks saying they'll pay more to someone else rather than deal with a company that would let John be a sysop, and the money lost to his company, matter to iron John not a whit. Being the most reviled man on the net, just doesn't matter to our man in paradigmatic sociopathy. No sense suggesting he get help, either. Sociopathy is utterly incurable by modern psychiatric science. The above quoted article was undoubtedly a forgery, it is so out of character to our man John's usual classy, well thought out, helpful, net cooperation fostering postings. I hope the villian posting these malicious forgeries is found soon, drawn, quartered, buttered, and eaten by the voracious beetles the museums use to clean skeletons. Gosh it's fun having you to kick around, John, and you make it so darned easy even a crazy old man can do it without straining his mental faculties. Kisses. Kent, the man from xanth. <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us> -- [Oh, and John, your PIs are lying to you and taking your money anyway because you are a gullible twit; don't you hate being taken for a fool? By everyone? Always? Justifiably? [You could stop posting and cut down the absolute frequency of this, but "No...".] Send them to Virginia, the only state where my mental health has ever been an issue before the courts. They still won't learn anything, because commitment hearing records and mental hospital records are sealed, but at least they'll be in the right part of the country and tell you more believable lies. Not that my chronic atypical monopolar depression is any big secret anyway, I just like to think of you wasting all that money.]
