} Please do not feed the faux Sobie-Troll.  Thank you.

I long ago quit caring whether a person was themselves or someone
else, and whether it was a troll or not. I started treating them all
the same, and it made not one bit of difference to the quality of my
usenet life. So I don't waste my time worrying about that anymore when
it comes to wasting my time with usenet. This is a much more efficient
waste of time now. And more fun.
