Bill, a better question is how many people are *reading* techdiver/cavers 
because of George, and how many because of you.  George is not the only 
source of information or entertainment on the lists, but it's pretty clear
he's among the better contributors.  So far you're not asking interesting 
questions, let alone giving interesting answers.

Seriously, man, in between the bait and the bullshit there's a lot to be 
learned here if you just listen.  You're letting yourself get distracted
way too easily.  Nobody here owes you a thing, and if a polite request 
to change one's presentation is ineffective a series of whiney complaints 
sure isn't going to work any better!  You don't have to like that, but in 
the end it doesn't really matter whether you do or don't.

p.s. If this really bothers you, and if you're using an ISP that 
     doesn't suck, I'd be more than willing to show you how use 
     procmail to filter out messages from somebody you don't like.  
     Forgeries may slip through, but you could block the originating 
     site to catch most of those if your annoyance level demands it.  
     Reply by private email if that's what you want.
