   Dockery is secretly hoping that his copyright violation/flame attempt   
   behavior of posting others' works will cause people to respond in kind   
   by posting examples of Dockery's *work*.   
      
   If this were to occur, he would declare that he had *won* because it   
   would inflate his Google hit count.   
      
   Of course, if this were to not occur, you would declare that he had   
   *won* anyway.   
      
   Dockery has that personality streak that is so common among to the   
   garden variety usenet troll:  The Robin Hood Syndrome. He sees himself   
   as the champion of the oppressed, and will do anything (including   
   making a gigantic fool of himself) to further his agenda of spitting   
   in the eye of the *establishment* or cabal as he sees it.   
      
   chuckles, rick fry, kenny chaffin, mike stephens, tom bishop, bill   
   palmer etc, etc, all have (or had) the same motivation.   
      
   They all have low self-esteem and imagine that they can pose as a   
   powerful, virile personality on usenet in order to compensate for   
   whatever transgressions some unspecified authority figure has   
   inflicted upon them in the distant past.   
      
   It's kind of sad, really, but it's somewhat interesting in an abnormal   
   psych sort of way, ya know?   
      
   Do carry on.   
      
   You win again!   
      
   yay   
      
   heh   
      
      
      
   "And it's only me here in this house. I don't   
   live with my parents. I don't have a spouse, or   
   children. I live alone. I have no emotional   
   support from anybody, which is okay, but it makes   
   things a little harder when life kicks you in the   
   fucking balls."   
      
   chuckles lysaght
