Admittedly, I'm not all too familiar with his postings, but on a general note, isn't it possible that someone else might not see it the same as you do? I really didn't see anything really sinister about the posting or it's content. It may very well be someone attempting to create a conversation, someone who may not be generally well received a lot of the time I gather. Also, if have such a distaste for his postings, you are free to ignore them as well. That said, I am all for alerting someone of something which may be a complete waste of their time, but in this case it feels like you are projecting your own dislike for the OP. Unless the OP really is deserving of such branding (in which case I'd stand corrected), I don't think it is reason enough to tell others not to read of his work just because you aren't particularly fond of it. Perhaps citing an actual example illustrating a reason to avoid him like the plague would of helped :-) -- szr
