Why do you thin this is so?

Look out, you'll have complaints sent to your sysadmin!

Fine, you've done that. Congratulations. Now what? Where is she? Why
hasn't she exposed the net as the seething morass of sexism and inherent
nastiness which it allegedly is?

What would it take to convince you of this?  I have, ooh, about 6 or so
private email messages saying exactly this. But that's all just hearsay.

Apparently rosie was subjected to sexist behaviour.

But that's just hearsay.

Not biased, are you?

Yippee. Start with the root cause of this thread, false allegations made
