	nope... tahts your assumption... all i say in that question
	is "do you see anywhere my saying that sridhar is gagging
	me?". this does not mean that i said "fft, YOU said that
	I said sridhar is gagging my right to speech"... the rest
	of this arguement is left for you to recurse over... ;-)

	ask him!

	i never told you about crashing systems! in fact i was careful
	not to ;-) ;-). hey, later in your post you say "you have been
	writing good comments" ... well that kill file would've
	eliminated that. here's the bottom line: newsgroups aren't
	meant to be policed... there are no "keepers" of unmoderated
	newsgroups. if you think i care a dime about whether all the
	readers of sci put in me in their kill file, you are very
	wrong! any loss from this adventure is not mine! hence my
	description of my attempts as "education".

	sir i cannot answer your imagination! suffice to say that i
	need no ganging up to make a nuisance of myself ;-) a quick
	analysis of article contents, intended audience, obvious
	intent of posts from wpi should dispell further doubts in
	"unbiased" minds.

	i dont know about the other wpi'ans, but my own humble efforts
	at educating ;-) ;-) the misguided youth on this forum, has met
	with but limited success. here's one more way i suggest to you,
	a person on usenet, to improve the quality of the net: it is
	not necessary to react to each article appearing on usenet. the
	essential definition of this forum requires self-moderation. its
	no use asking me or whoever to do something... for example, i
	doubt i will enjoy the success, as measured in anticipated
	righteous response, on one of the real groups (such as say
	comp.os.research) since the readers take care of "themselves"
	rather than attempt to take care of others!!!

	the only emotion evoked in me by such generalizations continues
	to be humour... they are blind, who will not see! ;-)

	peace,

	- ravi
