Nope, not playing that game. Rest assured the folks
from google, yahoo and aol know EXACTLY what
I'm talking about.

It's a pity that many here have fled in the last two years.
Mostly utterly fed-up with Bret's and Dougie's ****fests.
To flickr, and other places where moderation ensures
arseholes like Bret and friends are kept out. Check out
how many such groups he belongs to outside of Usenet:
I know of two, and they are email lists run by his pbase
and golf buddies. I wonder why?

NP. Note however that I only change
the subject of threads when that coward posts
in a provocatory fa****on. And because he has
now started his own insulting threads, he's also
getting my attention in places where it'll
hurt more. And it's gonna continue until
someone in aol/google/whatever sees the light
of his constant unwanted spam of pbase and
applies the spray can.

Well, I don't try to help unsolicited: that's
for missionaries and I'm not that religious.
Of course if anyone asks, I'll do my best to
help or pass on info I might hold.
Anyone is free to post here, if on topic and
without excessive and constant cross-posting.
In other words: the most basic rules of
netiquette in the Usenet.
If Bret y sus muchachos however jump
in with their drivel and pbase spam, all bets
are off. And like I said: it won't change
and will continue to happen.

Same here. The mob who built my house found that
out the hard way. They are a *big* company,
with lots of "Helen-connections". Three Fair Trading
complaint lists fully won and corrected for, with the
corresponding bad entries in their licence records and
they learned pretty quick...
But I digress and off-topic. Sorry.
> thats what I get for being lazy.
Not at all, you and others were just misled by
Helen's and Bret's wild claims. Anyone could be
mistaken, it's never been a character fault.

Dougie is an old hand at this sort of
masquerading. But he's mostly OK,
being also a local. As in: from
this country. Although those pollie bastards
in Canberra need a clean sweep! All of
them! But, I digress.

Narh. I just ask the lady to fill the glass
whenever she sees it empty and hopefully
sleep most of the way. If I'm awake, I'll be
panicking no matter what I might contemplate...
