We are always a bit vulnerable to these idiots, and there's a certain amount of reliance on the fact that most of them are a little too stupid to think of more ways to cause trouble. The best course is to send moderator email, and maybe to add a "moderation" messaging saying that this mail has been sent, and asking people not to respond in the thread. If someone has done that, it's best *not* to respond in the thread, even to tell the guy how stupid he is. He either knows he's stupid and regards that as a *good* thing, or he's so stupid that no amount of telling him is going to help. I think that these guys are mostly just kids who can't get any attention from the people around them, so they try to get it here. If they don't get it, there is no reason for them to stay. bruce
