No, the people did not wander back for a look.  They were too busy stuffing
their facial orifice; what effect that the paintings might have had were
wasted.

The people to whom Ms. Cheung refers are Wilbur Pan (u58402@uicvm.uic.edu)
and Patsy Wang (patsyw@hp.com).

I should make a comment on this.  This kind of behavior is typical of
Chinese-cu people, and although I don't really care what they say on USENET,
I take the matter very seriously when they decide to take matters from USENET
into real life.  They may think that it's game and that I helplessly won't do
anything because they think that I'm Chinese-ge (even though I've never
identified my ethnicity.)  These people would not try the same thing with
a European-American.

These Chinese-cu people couldn't be more wrong.  Once a topic of discussion
on USENET is translated into real life actions by Chinese-cu people against
me, I take the matter very seriouly.  And I respond, without hesitation
or remorse, in the same way that an intellectural European-American would
respond.

Numerous twits, including Mr. Pan, had been trying to play e-mail games
with me.  I reported all the activity to either the postmaster of the
offending site or the administrator of my site.  This is not a joke.
(I suspect that Ms. Cheung is aware of this, since she has never once sent
me e-mail despite her gaming attitude on s.c.a.a.)

As for threatened/actual attempts to spy on me, to interfere in my personal
life, and/or to post fabricated/or not material about me, I take that very
seriously.  I, and most other Americans, do not think that sort of activity
should be ignored.  I have not ignored it and, without hesitation or remorse,
will respond in the same way that a European-American would respond to this
kind of threatened or actual encroachment into my personal life.
