Thank you Henry.

Well, SA, I'd like you to note that of all the 2 million people on
USENET, you're the only one who's pissed me off enough to get into my
killfile in 3 or 4 years.  So yours are the only posts I won't get to
read, so yours is the only point of view I won't see.  And it has
nothing to do with your point of view.

Which achieves exactly the opposite of what you can have wanted.

What a jerk.  Maybe you'll find out that *QUALITY* rather that
*QUANTITIY* and/or insult level is what is needed to put across your
point of view.
