"Those who indulge in chest-beating about how they always win seem to overlook the fact that the so-called 
sig-abusers always win, too. Usenet is like that. If such meaningless labels are to be pressed into service, 
then I would say that Paul has won. Not only by his undoubted stamina, but by the sustained grace, charm, 
and mischievous wit of his responses." James Follett, novelist (writing in the newsgroup demon.local).
