Well do you mean freedom more like free or more like doom? Well bad joke. But freedom of speech is overstretching here. Actually this news group is not public area but private property. You know this guy who we dont want to name (:-P) is like a person Opening your front door running around your own house and yelling Around. He is funny sure but once he steps on your feet twice you Wanna have him out of your booth. You know he came here. And here is a special place run by Howard And Friends Inc.! So this is our pub... . You know what I mean! :-) -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Andy Pahne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 16.

In dealing with this particular troll, I have opted to start reporting him to the abuse departments of the networks from which he sends messages. If you feel compelled, I urge you to do the same in addition to ignoring him '''completely'''." I did not take the time to read all those troll's mailings, but as long as the troll does not violate the personal rights of anybody, all of his writings fall under the category "freedom of speech". Opting to report abuse to google mail and others seems to me like overreaction. Go with your own advice and ignore the trolls. Spare your energy for the really important things.
