The nice thing about Usenet is that it's so easy to filter out or ignore
things that bother you. Like your continual harping at Stuckle. Yes, he's a
jerk. No, he's not going to stop being a jerk just because you ask him to, no
matter how often you ask -- he's already made that quite clear. That's the
nature of jerks. If you don't like reading his posts, then killfile him. Just
like I'm going to killfile you, the next time you post one of these pointless
requests. You've made your point: you think Stuckle's obnoxious. I trust I've
made mine: you're getting that way.
