Actually, Gary Stooge bot is a moron and I will prove why:

Straw-man.  I mentioned stoogebot because a) that is your nickname and b) to show
the world that you have a little "history" on the area of lack of integrity.
Stoogebot was not a reference to spamming.  Of course, everyone would know that if
they actually read my original post but you decided to snip it all out--your usual
tactic by the way.  I've seen it before.

Obviously, you didn't get the part where at least two people said that not every
"UK Quakers" subscribed to a UK newsgroup.   Wasn't your argument on why post in an
American newsgroup called git.talk.quake?  Since when are people required to
memorize all of the abbreviations known to man?  Since when to people have to
assume "de" stands for "DANISH PEOPLE"?  How would they know that it stands for a
country?  Did you take a course on the internet before posting?  We can safely
assume that nobody in the land of "de" will move to the UK anytime in the near
future, right?

<snip, garbage> We already established a rule on how one can become familiar with
an unknown newsgroup.  We tell them to wait and see what kind of posts are made in
that newsgroup and/or use a resource like DejaNews and read up on old posts.  Such
a research would reveal no posts of any kind indicating that git.talk.quake is for
Georgia Tech students/faculty/staff and former students/faculty/staff going back as
far as roughly August of 1997.  This indicate a gross lack of professional and
ethical behavior on the part of Georgia Tech students.  If you want only GT people
to post in the newsgroup, then you people will have to post something in that
newsgroup on a regular basis indicating such a rule.

In addition, I failed to see any attempt by any of the whiners of Georgia Tech to
determine whether or not the original poster was a former student/faculty/staff.
Did you people even asked the person if he/she went to GT before telling him to get
out?  Nope.  We already established the fact that git.talk.quake and the rest of
the git.* hieararchy is an OPEN hiearachy and not a closed one so to allow former
students access to these newsgroups. What kind of questions did you ask to
determine that Adam James (the original poster) was not a former student?  I think
it is obvious to everyone what kind of "professional" courtesy is used by several
of the Quakers at Georgia Tech.  You people do a pretty good job in giving Georgia
Tech a good name.  Really, you do.
