   Fair enough, but does the phrase "waving a red flag in front of a bull"   
   suggest itself, how about, those of us who are willing, simply set   
   newsfilters to block anything and everything coming from that usenet server   
   as I have now done myself, then they can generate as much nonsence traffic   
   as they like and the phrase that would then apply to them would be "pissing   
   into a gale force wind"   
      
   Cheers
