Well, someone out there certainly _does_ pay for your network
connection. Perhaps you don't directly.  Perhaps you do via
tuition.  Perhaps I do via taxes (and the NSF).  Either way, I can
assure you that someone does pay for your connection.

I assure you that you aren't going to be "getting to" Sean Fagan.
Many people have already tried and failed utterly.

And the bandwidth used is just as much your creation as it is his.  It
takes two people to make a flamewar.

And (last point, I promise) Sean at least has a reason to do the
bounces, and I can assure you that he can find a number of backup
arguments.  You state right out that you want to do it just to piss
Sean off.  Now _there's_ a reason to abuse resources that other people
are paying for you to use.
