A can of worms, that.

To get the slightest of tastes (and without having to disenterre it all
here), go to roff on Google groups,

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o....fly?lnk=gschg

and search on HWMNBN.

"I'll take this one as an uninterested bystander...

See the 'Albolene revisited' thread for more info. G*nk is a well
known fly
floatant made by a man who used to infect this newsgroup. A worse
businessman there never was. He would come here and insult and harass
people endlessly. Many people here decided to never correspond with
this
individual or use his products - he is now usually called HWNMNBM or
HWMNBN
(he whose name must not be mentioned, he who must not be named). One
enterprising regular set up a server called g*inkst*nks.org (which
seems to
be offline at the moment?)."

I withheld that name of the above poster, though their name is public
