You've got a very good point there. And I agree with it. However, you've got 
the "wrong trolls". The trolls here are the ones who try to defend the crooked 
and the deceptive business practices of Texas.Net or any other deceptive ISP. 
They are the ones who come back with the "shameless" defense of scamming the 
consumer public.

What The Aldebaran Group, Ltd. has done [ <http://www.aldeberan.org/> ] is 
inform the consumer public about these crooked and deceptive practices. And 
what these other "trolls" have done is actually try to defend the crooked and 
deceptive practices. And then you have the "industry whore" ("Censor-All 
Rosenthal") trying to erase UseNet posts as fast as he can find one that 
exposes the crooked practices of ISPs. Talk about a real industry whore. And 
then you've got the other "trolls" out there -- who are the industry "quid pro 
quo" guys -- who are ready to jump on the bandwagon and defend any crooked 
practice that will allow the industry to skim and scam more money off the 
consumer public. What a gang of thieves we got in this "troll group."

So, you're right -- don't feed the "trolls" -- but make sure you're not feeding 
the "industry trolls" -- rather than -- trying to kill off the messenger 
warning the consumer public about the "scams."

Does your news server allow forged cancels? That promotes censorship
on content. A UseNet Death Penalty was issued because of my warning
about a crooked ISP -- ** Texas.Net ** -- cheating the customers.
Complain in a post to austin.internet about the UDP and censorship!!
