Send him over to aus.legal where he can talk to Seppo :-)

I thought you were going to help them out. Somehow your
fellow oceanians thought that by sending a post from an anonymous
remailer using Full Proper names in the title is a way to get
someone to respect them to followup in a group that is not
available with most american ISPs.
Seppo made a major mistake, he was sending complaints to
my ISP at a time when I wasn't posting and during a period
in which I wasn't even using the ISP as I was at home writing two
papers for publication (both of which are now published).
One of the IT guys caught me on an elevator as we occasionally
chatted, I ask him if he had any problems he said no but we
discussed Seppo complaints, he claims he had recieved
4 or 5 complaints, put them in the ignore. He claimed that
they were cc'd to my inbox, but since I was not using the
computer they disappeared into never-never land. By the third or
forth message I am sure they were tagged as spam. lol.
I told them, hey look, I complain to his ISP about language etc, many
people complained, I had no luck. So I said if he is irritating the
VPs why don't you guys just notify his ISP and maybe
they'll do something. So as long as he kept sending false complaints
the more leverage I had against him, but really I don't care, that's
their call, he is best ignored.
Seppo is a fine example of someone who has no emotional control
gets in a free and open forum like the UseNet. He is an accident
waiting to happen. But the one thing is, folks like Seppo are
part of the demise of the UseNet, because ISPs no longer
want to deal with the likes of Seppo, and they would
just as soon dump the archaic UseNet than deal with him.
This is what my IT people told me and they talked about
what was going on at other institutes. This is why I say,
stop dickering over what content is, present that which
is securely content or these groups will begin disappearing
from plain view.
