Enjoy.
Marty Markoe, eMicrophones, Inc.
Following are a few quotes to help illustrate the annoyance and
frustration spam from Martin Markoe causes users seeking help in the
speech users group.

You are not a technologist.
You sell microphones.
Marty, how come whenever someone disagrees with you, you get into
this high school urinating contest mode? Actually I can't find your
credentials anywhere either, except as a guy selling something.

Man you [Martin Markoe] really are full of yourself! Just leave me
alone. I asked you a question. Silly me, I wanted to know what I
was buying before I bought it. How absurd! I then get email after
email after email from you telling me that you won't answer my
question and trying to justify it. Lets cut the crap. You won't
answer my question. I won't buy from you. So now go away and let
me get USEFUL information from someone who will be honest with me
instead of evasive, devisive and insulting!

You [Martin Markoe] MAY have been inside but I HAVE been and also
speak from a position of knowledge. More importantly I am not here
touting my business. A position which makes anything you say
suspect, doesn't it. I have been watching this group for a long time
and you have managed to turn it into the eMicrophones, Inc. mail
list.

I subscribed 6 months ago hoping to learn something about the
"state-of-the-art" in voice recognition from the user's perspective.
A friend was seriously interested in using SR for writing, and where
better to learn about people's *actual* experiences than a Usenet
group entitled "comp.speech.USERS"?

... dealing with you [Martin Markoe] on the newsgroups is not an
easy thing and most always turns into some type of flaming war.
Here are my qualifications. Certified and trained for Philips
SpeechMagic, IBM ViaVoice, IBM Medspeak, Kurzweil VoiceMed, Dragon
NaturallySpeaking Enterprise & L&H VoiceXpress.
I am a member of several newsgroups in the microphone industry (more
than just computer mics). I see vendors posting all the time and as
long as you are not a member of the newsgroup, there aren't constant
one-up battles.
I'm sure one or two of your cheerleaders will probably join in and
if I lived on these newsgroups, I am sure I would have a few
cheerleaders of my own. However, I don't have time to fight.
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/ba6cc5fd879272fd?
Actually [Martin Markoe] having the time to think about and type
these long posts and calling names is really getting on the level of
immature, addictive, consuming, fanatical and scary.
With this pattern of behaviour, the next step is usually
stalking--email stalking (To follow and comment on one user's posts
persistently, especially out of obsession or derangement to threaten
or to menacingly spread deceit)
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/84f362b69d93a460?
However, you don't see the authors in all the newsgroups in a
constant battle. Only with you Marty. You don't see speech recognition
dealers doing this do you?
You have left such a bad taste in my mouth about your constant
bickering
I have seen posts from you that link to as many as 8 direct links to
your website (all in one post) and your signatures fall within 5 or
10 lines long. In my book, that's called SPAMMING.
