To Mark Ethan Smith,

It seems to me that all your postings address how people are
unfair/mean/wrong/bad in their treatment of what you do or say.
If this is so, you are using Usenet to talk about Usenet, not to
use it for what it is for.  This seems to be the ultimate
"meta-discussion."  Is it useful?  What are you here for?  To assert
your right to use it?  What for, if all your discussions are on
that topic?  Doesn't it become circular reasoning pretty fast?

Are you absolutely sure you want to do this? [ny]

:-)

Have a nice day.
