   I think that Arne may be incapable of that.  He seems unable to   
   refrain from engaging, and clearly asking him to stop for the   
   benefit of other readers has been ineffective thus far.   
      
   Perhaps the best thing is to just plonk any part of a thread   
   where someone responds to the troll, whether the responder is   
   Arne or anyone else.  I have no reason to believe that asking   
   Arne again is going to yield a different result.   
      
   Most USENET newsgroups used to have an FAQ; it may be useful to   
   restart that for comp.os.vms (among others), perhaps with a   
   section on well-known trolls.
