Get back to me after you come up >to speed on Xah. Given the aspect he presents on Usenet, why on earth would I want to go to his web page? Why should I want to "come up to speed" on him? I have him filtered, have for a long time, and I can understand that it would be better if everyone filtered or ignored him, but I don't see posted complaints about him being any worse than your complaints about the complainers. I have no idea why anyone would defend such inane, worthless, obscenity-laced articles. -- Al Balmer Sun City, AZ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
