With all due respect Jay, IT'S ABOUT FRICKIN' TIME! ;-)

It was *painfully* apparent to me LONG ago when I originally flamed
his ass that he and his continued FUD served absolutely no
constructive purpose whatsoever, which is why after I flamed him I
immediately placed him into my killfile. Refusing to respond ("feed")
trolls like him is the only way of killing them. By refusing to feed
them (provide them the attention (food) they crave), it allows them
to eventually die of starvation.

Please folks, DON'T FEED THE TROLLS! :)

Let them die. A quick [figurative] death is the only thing they
deserve (besides a well deserved thrashing (flaming) before placing
them in one's killfile of course).

Damn! I'm crushed. ;-)

Why Jay! Such language! (tsk-tsk)  ;-)

Nor I.

EVER.

(And if Peter (i.e. "Elmo" (heh! LOVE those nicknames: Elmo and Elmer
FUD. <bg> Well done, Patrick!)) continue as he has been lately, he
too will soon be joining Elmer deep within the bowels of my pet
killfile Cerberus.)

[1] You know Jay? You and/or Jan really should sue the fucker for
libel IMO. It's one thing to publicly flame someone (calling them in
your opinion an ass (among other things) like I did), but another
thing entirely for someone to publicly call someone a lying,
thieving, devious cheat. THAT in my opinion could well be legally
actionable (but I am of course not a lawyer and am not offering any
kind of legal advice by offering such a suggestion/recommendation).
