Am I correct in assuming that he did run the monkeys.com RBL-s?

Well then double plonk. I cannot even imagine that someone who has 
dedicated quite a bit of resources to fighting spam can behave in such a 
way, with complete lack of respect to someone who has put in just as much 
or more work into fighting the plague.

Well, to each his own. I understand one might criticize a certain 
approach to spam fighting, but I cannot understand if someone lacks 
respect for someone else's work.

Besides, if C/R is faulty, then RBL-s are a piece of crap due to the 
enormous false positive ratio that they render.

PS I hope your suspicions are wrong...
