No offense meant, but why do you participate?
Why not ignore/delete them by subject line?
Why not set up a filter, rather than adding yet
another aggravated posting to the junk, which in
return will upset others? And bear in mind that
the terror of the last two days was kicked off 
by Jamie in the first place, and he apologised
for it.

I don't start an avalanche of insults every time 
I get a ton of Mandrake specific mails, if I were
getting to annoyed I filter mails with Mandrake
in the title.
