I'm very tempted to just say "until you can start following the rules, I'm going to ignore you". The problem is that I'm worried he's /already/ got too much influence, and I feel a need to contradict his blatant rubbish (that there are no such thing as socially necessary but unprofitable bus routes for example) as I have a horrible feeling that, if I don't, at some time someone in authority is going to say "you all agreed with Adrian Stott when he talked about this" - and while there won't be any posts to say that we actually agreed, without positive disagreement we'll be working from a weaker position. My current proposal is a follow up saying "Adrian wrote to a lot of mixed up postings. Most of what he said is wrong, but until he presents his ideas coherently there's no point in responding". If we all took a pledge to do similar, we might get things back into shape.
