Whenever you reply to a message in a thread, if you see it is crossposted to 5 newsgroups, that usually means the person who posted it is trying to flood one of the groups with meaningless posts for whatever weird reason of his own. In this case, alt.slack, which Rob Cypher has been trying to "have a war against" for several weeks. Rob Cypher is apparently a cough-syrup addict who is trying to become an internet celebrity or something. Really, no kidding. There is a video clip of him floating around somewhere but I didn't save a link. A TV show actually did an episode on him just because he is so incredibly pathetic. -- Zapanaz International Satanic Conspiracy Customer Support Specialist http://joecosby.com/ I would hope to think that this is maybe hell. Maybe this is hell because then we could go on to something else.

Because I don't have any way of knowing which newsgroup the lady I was replying to is reading, and posting a reply to her which she would not have seen would have been pointless. -- Zapanaz International Satanic Conspiracy Customer Support Specialist http://joecosby.com/ I was going to have cosmetic surgery until I noticed that the doctor's office was full of portraits by Picasso. - Rita Rudner :: Currently listening to Cello Suite No. 6 in D Major, BWV 1012 : Courante, 1720, by Bach, from "Cello Suites - Yo Yo Ma"
