   He has also wrecked alt.os.development. And I would think there would be   
   others. He seems to go back to anywhere where there are people willing   
   to engage with him on any level - even if it is by angry and abusive   
   rants. The only solution, AISI, is not to respond.

   That's up to the moderator, of course, but the moderator has a life to   
   live and shouldn't be expected to vet posts - especially ones which   
   begin on topic but then slip in some preaching part-way down. I.e. I'd   
   suggest a complete ban. We'll live without the preacher. I already have   
   him killfiled and I survive....
