You can deny the inevitable only so long. The majority of people
that come to ROFF expect, and have every right to expect, a Usenet
newsgroup conducted with all the comity, decency, mutual respect
and cooperative atmosphere of any other Usenet newsgroup.

Gehrke is incapable of civil discourse, has been since the first
time he showed up here. I realize that he is in ill health and
having a difficult time, he is to be pitied and perhaps even
indulged but not to an extent that corrupts and coarsens the
conduct of ROFF.

i know of very few participants who would support a posting of the nature of
the one which precipitated this response.


You are quick to express a lack of support for Jeff's post yet
are curiously silent about Gehrke's. THAT's how you come to be
called Gehrke's sycophant.
