Tut tut....for somebody who constantly maintains he is opposed to foul
mouthed invective you certainly engage in a lot of it. Calling a bloke
a "slut" is a very strange thing to do. Perhaps you need a nappy
change?

I think it is time to pour some chlorine into the gene pool and thin out
some of the nappies, nazzis, homo's and the like.... This is almost funny to
sit back and read all the flame war

Well, that's the part that confuses me then. If not, why waste so much time
doing it?

Statistics are meaningless here. The numbers mean nothing if ninety
per cent of the posts are just rubbish.


That would be only a slight increase from the usual numbers. ROFF has
always had a low signal to noise ratio. You can't kill the group, you won't
significantly change what happens here on most days here with or without
you, you can't drive off the purported offenders, and you expect to gain no
satisfaction. What's the point then of the intentional disruption?

The answer is "melt down". "Melt down".

which are what, exactly? I mean, I could easily observe
what you seem to have achieved, but guess that those outcomes were not your
desired objectives.....

What a load of bull****. You dumbo were so stuck for an insult, you
even told me my doggerel was ****. Gave me a laugh at least. If I
continue my present course, there will be fewer people left to be
against me. Also, I have not yet even bothered to call on any allies.
Why donīt you just wait and see what happens?
Not one dumbo, or a whole bunch of them, is going to **** me about
like this and get away with it. It has nothing to do with ego either,
it is a matter of personal honour.

You've already lost the war no matter how many "allies"
you bring in. Sorry Mike, but you are acting just like
GeorgeG.
Sincerely,
- Ken



While I never held any affection or respect for George Gherke, he
would have realized that such a course of action would be
counterproductive to his aims. George wanted to be liked and
respected. While reality wasn't always close to George, it was never
so far away that he'd have done something like this.

I read that without first checking to see who the author was (didn't notice
his name at the top of the piece). When I finished I discovered that it was
Harvey Fierstein. Didn't ring any bells, so I did a Google Images search.
Oh.....duh.....I know him! Seen him in lots of movies and stuff. Often
plays a fat, gay guy. Does it well. Now I know why!

He's also articulate and thoughtful. Very good essay. It's a pity that
those who need to won't read it.

Thanks.

Wolfgang
