Moderate the List!

[Robert Naumann]

The unidentified person that sent the messages that started this discussion
should be treated in the same manner that repeater interference problems are
or should be.  That is, the "control operator" will identify and block his
transmissions and everyone else should ignore it.

The publicity and discussion that results is most likely the sought after
response.  We should not give it to him.

Since this is not a "closed" environment, some bad things may slip in on
occasion.  Just as in the rest of our lives, obnoxious folks exist.

Please use your delete key.
