   Just to be fair to Carlos, I don't see why Franklin constantly pulls in the   
   "well he said it too!" in defense of Franklin's own actions, but more to   
   the point of the OP on Paul, I respect Paul, not only for his acumen and   
   for his purposefully helpful attitude (which is the antithesis of   
   Franklin's hate-filled demeanor), but also because Paul has social skills   
   which I completely lack when it comes to trying to stop Franklin's trolls.

   Paul, for reasons that I admire, doesn't respond to Franklin's trolls.   
   He let's Franklin Slootweg's trolls fall by the wayside better than I can.   
      
   Hence, I admire Paul for having the same deeply caring personality that I   
   have but with a more graceful Knight's armor against these common trolls.   
      
   I invest hours into each of my PSAs and tutorials becvause I care about   
   people, and I respect them, where Franklin is the antithesis in all ways.   
      
   Franklin never shows any understanding of the topic.   
   Nor does Franklin ever add any on-topic value to any technical topic.   
      
   All Franklin Slootweg can do... is troll.   
   Franklin feels a desperation to troll that I have no skills to combat.   
      
   I admire that Paul shrugs off Franklin Slootweg's trolls better'n I can.   
      
   As for the privacy concept inherent in random dictionary lookups, the OP   
   might consider how effective it would be if each line was unique to Usenet?   
      
   BTW, if the OP is the Sn!pe common troll, please identify yourself as such.   
   As that will earn the OP on the killfile along with Snit & Alan Baker.   
   --   
   Of the million things to know about privacy, most people know about three.
