In response to a single article in an alt group, Richard Sexton makes yet another in his long list of attempts to get users with whom he has disagreements tossed off their systems, and splatters it all over a bunch of innocent newsgroups: In article <20142@gryphon.COM> richard@gryphon.COM (Richard Sexton) writes: >In article <13760@well.UUCP> xanthian@well.UUCP (Kent Paul Dolan) writes: >> >> BANDWIDTH WASTERS HALL OF FAME >> for articles in >> /usr/spool/news/alt/aquaria >> Fri Sep 22 05:00:26 PDT 1989 > >If anybody finds this mildy annoyingm I suggest you drop a line to >``xanthian@well'' expressing your delight upon finding such useless >and redundent information wasting bandwidth. > >For best results, send a cc: to ``root@well'', and use your computers >mail program, not the news program for a better chance of your mail >getting there. > >-- > Free Zsa Zsa >richard@gryphon.COM decwrl!gryphon!richard gryphon!richard@elroy.jpl.NASA.GOV Actually, if you suffer from Richard's anal retentive mindset and generic response "cut off his net access" to every posting not agreeing 100% with his point of view, you can make your inadequacies known much more rapidly to the interested party by doing the job right. Send flames, lawyers, guns, money to: postmaster@well.sf.ca.us or (same guy) dhawk@well.sf.ca.us Tell him xanthian sent you. well!xanthian xanthian@well.sf.ca.us Kent, the man from xanth, now just another echo from The Well.

Hmm... let me start a list: news.groups alt.sources alt.aquaria talk.bizarre soc.men [partial list only] These *and many more* got "Bandwidth Wasters Hall of Flame" postings. From K*nt. *Not* from Richard. "one article in an alt group"? news.groups is hardly an alt group. K*nt, wake up. If you still can. If not, I'm sure PSUVM is looking for more twits to give accounts to. -- Christopher Davis, BU SMG '90 <ckd@bu-pub.bu.edu> <smghy6c@buacca.bitnet> "Any quote short enough to be put in a .signature is too short to be any good."
