I wondered that myself. He was either incredibly dense or incerdibly clever. I find it hard to believe that he was so unaccustomed to mailing lists that he thought people were privately emailing him. So I applaud everyone's concern for understanding on this list, but I watched this from the start, and the OP was uneducable, hair-trigger tempered, and nasty from the beginning; and Carl, I, and others tried vainly to calm him. So he makes a bad case for your points. Or he was *really really* a clever troll.
I've seen this before (as I'm sure others have) in irc. I was in #xchat on another network when someone entered the channel and did virtually the same routine. It was aggrevating at first but after a bit everyone took this person for a troll and put him on /ignore. The person from the kplug-newbie list did a similar routine on one of the Fedora/Red Hat lists, right down to pulling his hair out. -Mike -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-newbie
