I could also be construed as "ignoring" the individual...  Much like the
MI5 jerk and Wireless Willy...

Which is why posts like Stanley's and Doug L's (and even this one)
should be repeated (bumped) every once in a while...

Not necessarily.  "Some" may just decide that all they're here for is to
"dig" through the "manure" looking for the "gems".  Tom's right.  The
whole thing's starting to sound lame.  After eight (?) years, what have
we got to show?  This has always been a forum for professionals.  Some
of us "regulars" may be getting a little "crotchety" in our "old age",
but to post material that's just as "malicious, spiteful and vicious"
isn't going to accomplish much (and hasn't in the past).  It's all about
"balance", Grasshopper (at least that's what I've learned over the years
here).  When Robert continues to make these odd "remarks" which
incorporate screen names and no one "responds", it makes it fairly
obvious just who's "poking" the I-Beehive.

And so what!  He's here to do one thing, and with his history on Usenet,
I doubt he's making much progress here on that front (although he likes
to "boast" that he is).  Give the man enough rope and he'll hang
himself.  He's on a short leash as it is.

He hasn't been able to take his Usenet attacks on me or you "real life",
and that just bugs the hell out of him.  But even that's not the
"topper".  He was kissing Worthy's ass for the longest time and look at
what's happened.  He's so desperate to hang on to what little "approval"
he gets here, he's even willing to sit down with RHC and feed him
Brazilian Barbeque knowing full well he'll be regailed with more ADT
takeover stories than the number of "perfect pairs" sunning in St.
Tropez on a hot July afternoon.
