Amazing, Rob.
I've just been reading the same trilogy, and was struck by the
similarity between you and the Spectres.

Like you say, some people crave attention.
Perhaps that's why you continually and loudly draw everybody's
attention to your killfile, yet by the same token, always manage to
have your say by employing a variety of alter egos.
I'd grant you that you haven't used Rob Chapman or Nomen Nescio for a
while (shame you f**ked that one up by ticking the don't archive box,
eh. Just imagine the fun you could have had in the lounge room), but
there's a few others you currently use.

How pathetic is that

Ken, instead of rising to he-who-is-named-after-fishing-tackle's bait
you should have focussed on the surprising grain of truth in that
post.

Granted it's ironic given who it comes from and who he's saying it to,
but still there's something to be said for bypassing creatures that
feed on attention and whose favourite type of attention to gnaw away
at with their drooling gums is the truth.

Ironic? Definitely. But good advice is good advice irrespective of the
source.

So don't give Alvey and Calvin the attention they want for the insults
which are all they have to offer.

Sound advice, Bob.
I have a tendency to retaliate in kind.
I'm glad that some people acknowledge that it's not me who starts all
this stuff.

Perhaps I should have spent the day composing a letter to Bond Uni,
complaining about one of their staff misusing their email facilities.
But then that would make me the same as them, so I suppose I shouldn't
bother.
I shouldn't rise to their continual jibes either, though that is more
difficult.
I'll try to bear your advice in mind
