   If I may chime in here...   
      
   We mac users with outlook express software don't have killfile options you   
   PC users do.   
      
   We do have indicators of how long each post is (our friend would say HOWE   
   long!) }:-)   
      
   Not only do I skip over The Wiz's posts, but also posts that  are more than   
   3K.  Sure his posts are over the top, but who has time to read all this   
   drek?  My goodness, Marshall Dermer's post on Wheaten Terrier's smelly paws   
   is 11 K and goes on endlessly.  That's another post I skipped.   
      
   There are certain members here who's post are always on topic, are   
   knowledgeable, and are brief and concise.  When I first started reading this   
   group it took me less than a week to figure that out.  I read them regularly   
   and have learned a lot from their posts.  The rest is noise.   
      
   Report him if you must.  It seems like there are some people in the UK who   
   enjoy his posts.  Sometimes I read, sometimes I don't.  He doesn't bother or   
   offend me, he just posts really long messages that I don't have the time or   
   inclination to read.
