E.
Please explain how what I said is trolling. Perhaps it was a little
snide but I tend to get that way when trying to explain the obvious.
Hmm. I thought he was referring to einstein1410... It was his message
he was replying to, not yours, and I took it as a request to the rest of
us (sorry, Erik--couldn't resist posting).
I took it to mean that he was telling einstein1410 to not feed
the trolls. If I am wrong then my apologies to Erik.
Yes, my message was to everyone, using a quote from 'einstein1410' that
I thought demonstrated the point.
The vast majority of the messages in this thread are from 'einstein' nd
are short, nonsensical retorts to others who are trying to be helpful,
that just seem designed to get a further response and nothing more.
Whether or not it's on purpose, he's just trolling. I may be wrong, but
it just looks like the result of a bet to me - perhaps there's a similar
thread on a Perl group somewhere and whoever gets the most replies wins.
