Anything posted to that many newsfroups, that looks the way this did, even
before the editor-enhanced tabdamage was revealed, is, if course, BAIT. . .

I'm perfectly sane since they started me on the injections. Now listen,

I used to work for DEC.

I know, I know, but I gave it all up. It wasn't easy, but I did it. Let me

Oh no, not again. He's even claiming to be neilb this time. Really, some
of these net.geek.newbie.wannabes really don't know when to give up. Who
*is* this guy, and is his recent "spurt" of postings at all connected to
the recent reappearence of Steve "Mr. Mind" Franklin? I think we should
be told.

I believe there is a similar festival celebrated in Brazil, only they use a

of which are name Joao.
