I wondered why I was getting a ton of Swen mail all of a sudden, when it
had died down of late. So I got an idea, and went looking on Google for
my
non-munged email address.
And guess what? There are a couple of new ones, since after Swen hit, and
after I posted all that advice here about not using your actual email
address on Usenet in the future.
And here they are:
and
I suppose you could try to make some excuse, Gore, about your posting
software, except you fucked up in the first post and removed the first
bracket around my email address, too, which a filter wouldn't have done.
Note that in the second, you're actually quoting Pig's response to me and
in his response, my "snippitydoodah" is intact.
I guess you felt like I deserved this because I'm a "racist" or
something, although one of the posts precedes that whole fracas, so I
dunno. Whatever rationalization for this your fevered little brain came
up with, this is petty beyond belief and a real pain in the ass for me.
Thanks a lot, shithead. I'm in the middle of a job, now, where I'm
communicating mainly via email and now I've got to deal with umpteen
fucking mails with attachments again every day. (No, I don't use the same
address for work, but I use the same mail app.)
I don't believe what a pathetic little bitch you are, Gore. I may not
like you, but I would have thought you above something this childish and
destructive.
Oh, and try and keep in mind when you respond that I have your real email
address here.

work with men? ...you fucking child."

In case you haven't noticed, I do "ignore it all" pretty much, anymore.
I'm not going to let somebody do something this asinine to me, though,

He is, basically. There's no difference between what he did and going out
and signing somebody up for a bunch of porn web sites or whatever--save
that he knew that what was going to be coming at my computer was all
malicious code.
i think gore is just spreading the love around BABY...

That's a really odd way of rationalizing this kind of behavior, bod. Hey,
you think it'd be cool if I posted Gore's email address for the same
reason, the one he doesn't use on Usenet?
I didn't think so. (Not like I'm going to do that, since I'm not a big
baby.)

No, it's not. Look at the posts. In the second, he had to dip down into
Pig's attribution to remove my spam and virus blocker--you can check
Pig's initial response to me a few entries back on Google--the blocker's
intact, there.
If you don't feel like bothering with that, shut up, if you don't mind.
Given that I posted extensively on how to thwart the Swen worm right
before this happened, I can't think of a better reason for him to have
taken this trouble. If you can suggest a better reason, please, let's
have it. I certainly haven't noticed that Gore makes a practice of
removing people's spam blockers when he responds, and as I took pains to
point out, the absurd possiblity that he's got some kind of filter that
removes them isn't even an absurd possibility, since he fucked it up the
first time.

Oh, and for anybody who doesn't bother looking at the posts, the chances
of this being an accident are nil. The blocker's right in the middle of
my email address, and in both posts only it's gone, so this can't have
been a cut and paste error.
So the plain fact here is that Gore posted my email address, and did so
intentionally.
My further supposition comes from two more facts, that he did so right
after the widely noted advent of the first Internet worm that mines
Usenet posts, and right after I'd posted several articles in response to
other members, advising how to thwart it and similar attacks in the
future.
Obviously, I'll retract that supposition if Gore can come up with a
reasonable explanation for the first, indisputable fact.

I know Gore. That's the only point that needs to be addressed.
I'll make it easy for you, and just let you talk to the voices in your

Nope. Still got him killfiled. If I'm going to see an explanation, it's
going to have to be because somebody responds.
I won't see it, though. If Gore bothers to respond, he'll completely avoid

Bad enough that that was a gross overreaction, but you had to go and
get personal _and_ gratuitously nasty, didn't you? Worse, you did it
to Homer, somebody who, despite your comments, has long been a
valuable and well respected poster on this n.g. You, on the other
hand, seem to have once again worn out your welcome.
I tried to cut you some slack after you emailed me, both because it
was the right thing to do, and also because I'd genuinely hoped you'd
changed. But this is just too much.
With sincere regrets, I'm killfiling you. Again. Don't bother
emailing me with any more "olive branches" in the future. I'm
unlikely to make the same mistake again.

That's pretty much what makes me wonder how often those 'gentlemen'

Hm. Barring a refutation, what a shitty thing to do. Wouldn't be
surprising, though, sadly. As a die-hard rationalist, I think anyone
who's capable of willfully representing opposing viewpoints -- i.e.,
distorting logic -- as he did throughout the great race debate would
also be capable of permitting himself to act spasmatically in anger.
It all boils down to infantilism.
If he didn't nuthin', then I stand corrected.

Prediction two: if anybody responds to this, they'll paint his lack of
response as amazing demonstration of his mature powers of restraint, as
opposed to my nutso "overreaction."
I'll leave it to regular readers of this group to make their own calls as
to Gore's demonstrated restraint and tact in the past.

Mr. Lee may indeed be crazy, but that doesn't make him wrong. He made a
sound argument that one of the alpha males of this forum acted in a most
unbecoming way, and supported it with evidence. This kind of "HOW DARE YOU!!"
post is really strange, and not in a good way.
ObHorror: Okay, how about _The Devil Bat_? The thing I remember most about
this picture is that Bela Lugosi plays a man named "Paul Carruthers", and no
attempt is made as to why he speaks with a Hungarian accent. It's an OK
horror flick, but one of many reminders that the old precept "They don't make
'em like that anymore" is not a bad thing in all cases.

"Gentlemen's club" is high praise, actually. I'm reading this thread and
thinking "cult".
You should have seen what happened on alt.vampyres in the summer of 1998.
(In fact, thanks to Google, you can.) There's this one gal who posts there --
really nice lady -- who made one mildly prurient joke towards some guy, to
which he responded by ferociously and unequivocally threatening to kill her.
In the ensuing flamewar, most of the rank and file of a.v. took his side
rather than hers.
The hivemind mentalities that these Usenet groups get are fucking WEIRD.
alt.flame is starting to look pretty good by comparison.
Somebody should write a horror film about it. Then again, these guys would
probably take it as a compliment...

If you prefer to me to killfile you, please let me know. I don't see the point,
but I'm perfectly willing to oblige. Beyond that, pointing out hypocrisy on the
INTRAWEB is like winning at retard basketball. Yeah for you, but otherwise, what's

The only thing you've accomplished by your little triple threat diatribe about the

gratifying your ego and solidifying yourself as the cup holder for internet

watch as I stand up to them with my mighty wit and mirthful tongue".
It's a nice show, but in the end, very pointless and very repetitive.

I have a title: "The Revenge of Ringo". Ringo finds out where each one
of the "cult" lives and kills them imaginatively, drawing inspiration
from old Criswell posts.

No, so that he'd get Swen mail... as Lee said in the article.

A friend I met up with at the O'Reilly open source conference this summer
turned me on to this article, which is one of the best things I've ever
read about Usenet and Internet groups in general.

Thanks, man.

Actually, I was being facetious. You and I don't always agree, so it
wouldn't have surprised me to find that you either hadn't seen or didn't
like Mr. Lean's work. I keep noticing that folks who dig obscure films
like to sneer at stuff that seems a little too white bread.
Besides, I'm still pretty buzzed about _In Which We Serve_, so I was
happy to have any excuse to bring it up. That's just about the best goddamn
WW2 propaganda film I've ever seen... even better than John Ford's _They
Were Expendable_.
ObHorror: Say, given the "actors who've done no horror" thread, we could
use a good "directors who've done no horror" thread, of which Mr. Lean is
a good example.
Weirdly enough, John Ford actually doesn't qualify. He's credited with co-
directing a 1919 film called _The Craving_. Heaven knows I'd be glad to see
it, but I suspect he directed it before he was John Ford, not unlike how John
Woo did _Princess Chang Ping_ before he was John Woo.

You're quite welcome, but there's a measure of self-interest involved here
as well. This whole "BURN THE INFIDEL" stuff is not what I want happpening on
any newsgroup in which I participate.
ObHorror: After all, the more energy we expend on fighting these silly
little flamewars, the less we have to talk about such mind-altering films
like _Les yeux sans visage_. (No remarks about my calling it by the French
title, okay? It just sounds so much better than either of the English ones,
and there's no Billy Idol association that way.) One of my favorite examples
of "horror movies the way they're supposed to be done", and one frequently
mentioned to people in casual conversation so they won't think that just
because I'm a horror fan I'm into Freddy and Jason or similar rubbish.

Because morality and good behavior is what the internet thrives on. Because most people
choose to be on their best behavior when writing to hundreds of anonymous strangers.
Sarcasm aside, there is a difference between freedom of speech and freedom of listening.
I honestly don't take care if somebody killfiles me or not. It means somebody doesn't
want to hear me anymore, and that's their loss. I don't take it personally, nor should
anyone else.

As I'm sure Gore literally knows the programmer and instructed said programmer to
construct the virus and personally infect Robert Lee's computer. Otherwise, it sounds
paranoid to me. Beyond that, I honestly don't care enough about it to bothered fuck all
to deal with it. The trials and tribulations of Robert's computer...and the love hate
relationship between a Robert and Gore is as important to me as the littlest Romanian
orphan who could do somersaults. I thought about it - Made a sandwich, didn't have any

Now *that's* weird.
Do you suppose he was viewed by audiences as an American who talks funny,
the way Michael Caine is today? Or was it a case of significantly lower
standards wrt racial impersonations (cf. Alec Guinness as a Japanese in
_A Majority of One_)?
