What a pantload. I've been posting to roff since before there
was a roff and I've noticed that the folks who get the most
agitated are the ones who are "legends in their own minds".
That would include George Gehrke, His Loony Mikeness and you.

Your animus towards me goes all the way back to when Gehrke
thought he had roff wrapped around his little finger and a
collection of "junk yard dogs" to cheer him on. Neither of
those things were ever true but that was Gehrke's perception,
demented as he was. There was, and apparently still are, a
few who would blame Gehrke's loss of reputation on roff from
"Wise Uncle George" to "Huckster Extraordinaire" solely on me.
As much as I'd like to take credit for that it was Gehrke's
own doing.

Now you want to blame me for what ? Declining readership of
roff ? The decline of Usenet newsgroups ? The post-movie
decline in fly fishermen ? The kidnapping of the Lindbergh
baby ? LOL !!

Take your silly fairy tale somewhere else, nobody with any
sense around here will believe a word of it because we all
know it's Wolfgang's fault ! LOL !!
