Yes, this crudball clearly aspires to join the net.cosmic.asshole Hall of Fame along with Leon/Valencia Heydenrich, Ken Arndt, Ray Frank, "Mark Ethan Smith", whatsisname Foothead, Tim Maroney, the Brahms Gang...oops! now they'll flame *me*. As a semi-official representative of the Eric underground, the existence of which was first revealed in this very newsgroup (remember? Erics? moustaches? system manglers?), I now state that the anthropoidal eric@puff has not now and never has had any connection with us. We are a *respectable* conspiracy; a little crazed maybe, but in no way such drivel-brains as to recruit anyone like *that* twit. As a matter of fact, we are seriously considering siccing our specially-trained extra-ferocious Message Eater (a genetically engineered modification of the wild Line Eater phylum concocted at the Eric Conspiracy labs) on him. We will do this by loading it onto the Net via a specially-insulated modem, with instructions to home in on crusty white crotch stains (come to think of it that might catch Leon too!). So remember -- when you next meet an Eric, smile. If its pants are clean, it may well be one of *us*... -- Eric S.

There are laws in most civilized nations makeing it a Felony offense for parents to name a dweeb Eric. Obviously this is not the case in Wisconsin. Drugs, shmugs. Just say no to Ignorant Facists.
