So you encourage him to dump almost half a meg of totally off topic crap
in a completely irrelevant newsgroup. Is THAT good netiquette.

Below is a message I sent to system@codeworks.gen.nz.

<QUOTE>
many thanks for your brief informative posting in aus.net.news - NOT

I cannot imagine that any New Zealanders are interested in your self
promotion of your anal retentive actions in nz.general, but I doubt that
a single Australian is.

My calculation is that receipt of your off topic ridiculous 10859 line
post cost me of the order of $A0.42 in ISP and telecommunications
charges.  I would appreciate a cheque for the New Zealand equivalent by
return mail to me c/o PO Box 80, Belconnen, ACT, 2616, Australia.

</UNQUOTE>

As system@codeworks.gen.nz has declined my request for reimbursement
because it is not his fault, but that of Dave Nagle, perhaps you would
like to reimburse me?
