>From my point of view, this issue has two sides: 1) Xah is posting to the newgroups valid topics for discussion - if some find these controversial, then all the better: it means that the topic has provoked some thought. You only need to look at the quantity of Xah's threads to see how popular they are (even if you filter out the "you're in my kill file", or "plonk" style spam that some people feel the need to post)
2) Xah cross posted the posts to several newsgroups he has an interest in. Now this second point should be the only factor for reporting him to his ISP. Given that it has gone this far, wouldn't it be fair to give the guy a break on the condition that if he wants to post to a variety of newgroups, that he does it individually rather than as a cross post? -- Ant... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
