Anne: The name rang a bell here, too, so I took a look through my Trash folder. It appears that Walter Anticona got subscribed to this list -- I've no idea as to how that happened. Walter, who is in Peru, seems to be somewhat less than proficient at English, and is also very much challenged in the OS department (yep -- Microsoft Outlook). Walter decided he wanted out, and posted a message (in Spanish) to that effect back in April. Walter's request went unheeded. Finally, on May 8, it would seem that Walter blew his stack and thus took action by posting the following response to 15 threads over a period of 20 minutes: > Use MS Windows > Linux has not documentation My Trash file shows no further posts by Walter since then. Perhaps someone at Mandrake took mercy and pulled the plug on Walter; perhaps Walter set up a filter; perhaps Walter has been suffering in silence. Until today. I'm sitting here thinking about this whole incident as some sort of transformed Fawlty Towers episode with the part of Walter played by John Cleese. Hmmm... I wonder if Walter's wonderful and beautiful MS Windows got infected by Bugbear. Gee, Walter, I'm really sorry for you. Damn shame. Real pity about that. Can't go on -- laughing too hard to type. -- cmg
