Highlander, you have gotten cross posted into a usenet flame war.
The correspondent known as Sampath, corruption, american gvt
...blabla, is polluting rec sport cricket with anti celt racist
abuse. Someone thought it was smart to cross post his abuse to the

I've already gave Sampath...... the oul' curse, he will be getting
