    Here;s the story and you can read the thread if you desire..

    There was the original post on the referenced subject.  It refered to a very
    long and drawn out discussion on the difficulties between Miata Magazing,
    MCA and Mazda.  The referenced URL had over 10 pages of forums postings.
    With a plethora of opinions and ramblings.  I posted to the original usenet
    posting, courtesly asking the originator to just give us the 25 words or
    less story.  i.e. the salient issues which all of us Miata Owners and
    members of MCA are intensely interested in.

    Thats when BOZO (aka Leon van Dommelen) jumped in with his smart ass comment
    "think for your self".

    I did a bit of investigating and discovered that in the past he had been
    disciplined by his university for using their computing systems to post
    personal messages on the usenet and other transgressions of a similar
    nature.  Apparently they dont condone personal use of
    government/institutional facilities.

    While an often and prolific valuable contributor to the Miata Usenet
    Newsgroup, his smart mouth comments that add no value have already cost him
    some problems.. My response is that I wont put up with his childish
    commentary to a reasonable request.

    I guess it is, once more, time for the troll FAQ.

    If you have not yet seen the troll FAQ, please do.
    It can be found at:

    Yahoo has a list:

    P.S. I think we had a mr awacs troll here before once.  Probably a
    copy-cat.  This one cannot have been in the business for a long time.  ;)

    I plonked him the first day, so I wouldn’t know, but I hope he’s working
    up a real sweat over me.

    Hmm. Looking in my killfile, i see an old entry for "Hans_DounerBlaus"
    so this disease is not a new one. My filter list is a trip down memory
    lane, in fact: noazark, gergwo, several Mark Miller variations…such
    nostalgia! I also kill any article posted to more than one group by
    parsing for commas in the Newsgroups header–very useful at improving
    the overall signal-to-noise ratio.
