Except for the fact that people flame his American sounding aliases Adam Wilks
and Gerold Daniels just as much as Vikrant and Madhavan.  The only "theory" this
moron has proven is that if you post incoherent trash to a message board you
will get flamed.  I can't believe you are taking his bullshit seriously.

What I really don't understand is why the moderators are complaining to me
instead of banning this guy's 5000 accounts.  Take a look at the threads where
Swami comments appeared.  In one, he detailed his experience clicking the
install button on Shredder 8 (it should be noted that he managed to use 500
words without any line breaks, periods, or capital letters); in the other he
created a thread with 10+ posts all of which were by his various aliases.
Please explain to me how this guy is not a huge waste of ICD's bandwidth.
