I pretty much agree. I had some fun at Petey's expense a week ago for a few
days as a whim but generally, it's no big deal to simply dump anything he's
posted without reading it. IMO, everyone should have a right to post
whatever they want as long as it doesn't cross a pretty solid line of
real-life abuse or threats of any kind. The old axiom of feeding a troll is
always right and as I found, while it might be fun(ny) once in a while to
rag on him for a particularly idiotic comment, the more ignored the guy is,
the less he'll post. That said, as he currently is these days, I'd never ask
for or vote in favor of him being booted off this list. Let each list member
chose to engage or ignore him on their own terms.
T.B.
