I see no problem with responding. The question for me is how, and to whom, 
besides this hacker (of the slack hacker variety, not kludge writers) should 
I respond to. Since he responded to me, and may the wonders of stupidity be 
praised, he asked for my useless password, it might be within my power to 
get his google account terminated. They in turn can get his internet service 
contract reviewed. For some reason, googlemail guards IP posting host 
numbers. hotmail does not.
