As you discovered, it doesn't do a smigeon of good. Brian Steele has
permanently and irrevocably committed his career --- or at least
his professional reputation in this forum, which might not be the
same thing --- to his belief that NT is an appropriate and suitable
vehicle for getting real work done, and that people who disagree are
just ignorant.
In the future, if you continue to find his baits too enticing to
resist, it might be more effective to just procmail him out of
existence. If you don't believe that NT is a viable and appropriate
OS to use for firewalls and suchlike production servers, blackholing
Brian Steele won't hurt you a bit, it'll only help.
