    <sigh> Once again, the issue is why anyone would want to do that - to pry
    into someone's private life to 'expose' that person. You would have to be a
    cycle path to get any satisfaction from it - whether it takes a minute or an
    hour or a day is not the point.

    I'm more of an ATV trail than a cycle path.

    Perhaps he deserves a serious answer to his question, John. But the
    best answer comes in the form of another question: Why do some people
    crave Usenet anonymity so much?

    His mentor once admitted the answer. They do it essentially to be
    malicious and dishonest without accountability. They would never say
    the nasty things they say, or tell the lies they tell, if they thought
    someone they know might connect it with them.

    Then why do people expose their identities? To make them nervous.
    Suddenly they see that their flimsy Usenet anonymity does not provide
    a bulletproof shield.

    However, to Curt's credit, he has never tried to conceal his identity
    or any personal information. He may be intentionally annoying and
    weird, but he doesn't hide. Nevertheless, his comment about you
    living with your mother was pretty stupid after the many times you've
    posted pics of your own home.

    You are right. He even uses his real email address which is something
    I don't even do any more.

    An interesting rationalization if the facts fit the story. But they don't.
    Why did Dally recoil at having her real name and personal details published?
    What about all the nasty things she said and the lies? You are full of [censored]

    I still don't understand why she objected to that.

    WTF? Get a grip. It's really not too much to ask. Axel is
    legitimently mentally ill. I didn't throw a fit about him using both
    names because, well, because. It [censored] me off that people kept
    full-text quoting him without snipping a name. But WTF is wrong with
    YOU? Don't use both names.

    Rise above it, Wendy. At least one moron uses my full name all the
    time, as though it's some magic incantation that makes him more
    powerful. In reality, it just makes him look childish. You would do
    well to ignore it.

    Pretty powerful without you.

    I doubt he looked as much like a schmuck as the fellow who started
    making angry threats of real-world harassment just because someone
    mentioned his full name. 🙂

    So, it seems that troll enablers aren't killfiled according to the rules?

    Private schmivate, David. I offer personal info on

    I live by the Golden Rule with the Capone Corollary. Do on to others

    I'm amazed that you actually spelled corollary correctly. Anyway, it's

    Why-is-your-head-so-incredibly-and-tightly-lodged-in-your-rectum?,

    I ~*asked*~ if he lived with his mommy. My friend said Johnny lived
    with his parents. He spews enough immature banter, so it would make
    sense that he's younger than I had originally assumed. I've never seen
    pics of his /home/. I'm not especially interested in him or you, for
    that matter.

    Do YOU live with your mommy?
