I wonder if I am the only one to know the significance of that last
sentence!

Robert,

My opinion is that you archive every single word.

Evidence of mediocrity as an extreme sport, and "mental-lentil" thinking.

What's done is done. Water under the bridge.

What can be done to prevent him from being upstream?

That, i would endorse in total.

I'm worried that it might not be so obvious who was the "mental-lentil"
out of context. Hence if they're going to be included it should be with
the rest of the archive.

As I have my own groups, I notice that you can set moderation on a
member-by-member basis. So if a particular individual causes trouble,
you can make sure all their posts get okayed by a moderator before they
appear. This won't stop them re-subscribing under a different name, but
if that becomes a problem we can move to closed membership.

Yes, that would be sweet... particularly since he is so kind and well
mannered...

There's NOBODY crazier than mclaren... possibly pathologically.

So most certainly he belongs on "Crazy Music..." One could even take
out the "music" part...
