Glad to catch you in a pedantic mood, Jim.  Just the other day I was
wondering what "spamming" was.  Pretty soon I won't even have to post my
words questions here; I'll just wait for one of you to sense the wrinkle
as it passes across the Group Over-Forehead.

But hey, speaking of "unclear on the concept," I was questioning Mr.
Kolaks' judgment in spraying his threat all over the same mailboxes that
were polluted by the original post, not the legal advisability of a
harrassment suit.

But now you've got me interested.  So can <I> sue <him> now?  For
harrassing me in the course of harrassing the guy who harrasssed him?

Carol
