Re[2]: Steve Lamb has left the building
MDP As Allie just said to me in private: "I strongly believe that this MDP will be a turning point for the list. A thousand years of peace. :-)". MDP We shall see. This is indeed a pity, despite his abrasive style SL definitely made some valuable contributions to the list, I for one am sorry to see him go. Most would probably call me a lurker since I don't really post all that often... even so, I'd like to say that I don't buy the "misunderstood genius" bit or the "this is how I am, deal" thing... I'm glad to see that Marck has done what's needed doing. Something we should all strive to remember... There are NO dumb questions, or dumb opinions.

Re[2]: Steve Lamb has left the building
A., Regarding your message dated: 18 September 2000... ACM It's a ban on both. Just out of interest - I assume that any ban is made against the subscriber's email address and therefore there would be little to stop a banned individual from re-subscribing under another alias thanks to the anonymity the net provides. Naturally, if someone were to do this then either they would need to modify their behaviour to avoid an equally quick second departure which might be to the benefit of the list (or not?) but I guess what I am asking is that if someone really wants on to the list there's probably little that can be done to prevent it. My only thought against the above would be if a ban were also placed on specific IP addresses if the banned party were known to have static addresses that identified them uniquely and even then it wouldn't be too hard to circumvent. I suppose one has to just trust that the party that has been removed from the group list 'honours' that ban and does not attempt to gain entry by other means. Just thinking aloud given the immediate 'candid' responses in case anyone might have considered 'talking ill of the dead' so to speak...

Hello Nick, Sunday, September 17, 2000, 7:58:47 PM, you wrote: ND In Reference to "Steve Lamb has left the building" From Soth: S There are NO dumb questions ND Come work with the people I do. You'll recant that statement quicker ND than Slick Willy can drop trou. With the people I work with, that is the truest statement I have read in quite some time. And in regards to the time element. Dang, that's fast. For those that care... Yeah ok. My full time job is in DC, so that statement reminded me of all of the minions going around trying to come up with an excuse for that after the fact.
