Hello. What does one do when when a sysadmin himself posts
obnoxious stuff on usenet?

Thanks. Post follows.

:- Wpi seems to be infested, certainly.

        with posts from people like you!!! luckily it will all expire
        pretty soon! and if you continue to make comments like this, so
        will you!!!!

:- So I won't be bothered to answer inane posts.

        thats a good rule. this way you will avoid the great usenet
        blunder of answering one's own posts.

:- Do your own homework and don't expect *me* to
:- provide answers for you.

        i would if you people stop posting all these inane articles
        triggering me to respond.

        have a nice day tomorrow. the rest of your life is going to be
        pretty tough!

        peace,

        ps: this flame has been brazenly left without smiley captioning,
        since her given word (about responding to posts) prevents return
        flaming ;)

        obrodking: could we all just get along?
