A bit of background; a few days back someone mentioned the possibility
of Mutlu truly using a keyword searching program to respond; I decided
to test it. I posted the following message, in scg alone, in reference
to a new law in south Florida that prohibits animal sacrifice for
religious or other purposes. (true story from NPR last week)

Here's the original article:

Mutlu, this time you've outdone yourself. Here's a translation in Greek:

ST> [Title of article] Paranoid law!

ST> Just so that we don't think Greek laws make no sense, I just read that
ST> somewhere in the USA the law prohibits sacrifices of animals for
ST> religious reasons (busybodies...)

ST> So, whenever we slay a turkey for Christmas or a chicken whenever we
ST> pour the foundation of a house [Greek custom in some areas ]
ST> are we barbarians? How about sheep? 

ST> Great craziness. Basically this message is bait to see if our
ST> feathered friend is totally automatic or he does it manually. If you
ST> see a reply [to this message] that means that he searches for key
ST> words (here's terminology :-)). 

ST> Spiros

Of course, to anyone knowing how to read/write Greek, the last
paragraph was a dead giveaway that this was a Mutlu bait, which of
course he swallowed with the line and reel.  (Just like he did the one
regarding soc.culture.jewish a few months back). If only "Argic" knew
how to read/write Greek...

Mutlu, do all of us a favor. Post your crap but don't interfere in
legitimate discussions. It is not my fault that you get trigger happy
when one references certain members of the poultry family.  It is
approaching Thanksgiving now, what are you going to do, send e-mail to
all the groceries telling them to rename their turkeys to
Thanksgivingpoultry or Christmasbird?  Are you going to write letters
to the editors? Are you going to flame people in rec.cooking for
posting turkey or chicken recipes? Are you going to picket Butterball
Turkey Inc. or Kentucky Fried Chicken?

So Hasan B-) Mutlu (we all know where you work now, no need to repeat)
turn off MUTLU.EXE so we can all live in peace.
