Don't feed the troll
Some types of newsgroup posters get their jollies by disrupting a
discussion. It is best to not feed the troll with comments. Since I have finally identifed one such troll I have plonked him. If you don't feed him he will go back under his bridge. -- Wil |

Perhaps I should have said the trill will put his lure away and go drown himself? :-) But the one of which I speak reminds me more of the ugly creature young children are afraid of in Three Billy Goats Gruff.
