After I read the last few messages you've sent, you must realize that you'd
be one of the twits I wish to filter, yes? Being on fido for three decades
does not make it okay to be a jerk. Being a ZC, RC, or any other position of
responsibility should actually preclude being a jerk!

I fully agree with your quote. Clearly, you're not *always* a jerk. Often, but
not always. And my belief system tells me to give everyone a second chance.
This is why you haven't already been filtered off. Do try to make the best of
it. :)

Meanwhile, this is very much off-topic.
