Or if you had a sense of humor. Or if what I said wasn't so stinging

It's also apparently not a place where you wish to see honest discourse
if said discourse does not meet with your approval. Ordinarily, you
could killfile me, and we'd have no problem, couldn't you Peter? But
because you are using Mozilla's newsreader, which even after almost four
years still does not have killfile functionality, you can't, can you?
Who's fault is that Peter? Is that my fault that you can't killfile me?
But that's not the real problem either, is it Mr. Lairo? You don't want
*anybody* to hear what I have to say, do you? *You* want to decide what
they can and cannot read, don't you Mr. Lairo? My speech is
"dangerous", you've all but said so yourself. You want it supressed.
You want me disbaled, unable to exercise my inalienable right.

You wish that I had a disability that prevented me from posting here. I
sincerely doubt you regret much of anything pal.

What's the first resort? Oh that's right, wishing me disabled.

Why this "3 months" figure? Why not permanently Mr. Lairo? You want me
permanently disabled, but you only want me banned for three months? Are
you hoping that some "accident" will befall me in that time? Planning
on it?

Or possibly both!

*I* have an anger problem? I don't recall ever wishing disabilities on
anyone, for any reason, much less expressing that wish to them.
Certainly never for something as silly as posting a link to a program
(one of Mathuzilla's competitors) which people were having trouble
finding, anyway.
You, on the contrary, wish me disabled, wish me power outages, and now
wish me banned from this newsgroup for the bizzarre period of three
months. Because I don't have the same religion you do. And because I
might be laughin' a bit too loud.
I'll let the Gentle Reader decide who has the "anger problem" here.

Mr. Lairo, since you seem to be quite willing to tell me what to do, let
me return the favor:
1. Please get down off your high horse. You do not speak for the Body,
as both Gerv and Garth have attested to. We all know it is Garth that
speaks for the Body.
2. Please kiss my hairy kiester.
3. Please, if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. There's
probably a well-moderated alt.religion.mozilla group where you can hang
out with the dozens of other people who have eyes but cannot see the
serious problems in the Mozilla project. If not, you can start one and
moderate it yourself, and never have to hear about Mozilla's problems
from me or anyone else.

People like you never do discard that possibility. You can't; Microsoft
is the Devil in your religion, and anyone who blasphemes your Savior
(AOL/Time Warner in this case) must surely be doing your Satan's
bidding. To you there can be no free-thinkers, there are only those "Of
The Body" and those "Of The Enemy", and anyone you can't quite come to
terms with gets put in the second bin to await the Rapture, which never
quite seems to come.

How so Peter? Who or what am I "disrupting"? And how exactly? Oh
that's right, by speaking too plainly, by telling truths that are a
little too embarassing to The Body.

That may be due to the fact that I have no willingness to cease my
behavior, which seems to be completely acceptable to everybody but you.
