Norman,

If I were you, I really wouldn't bother. This is what they want. I don't know what's going to happen to the NG. We seem to be under a 'denial of intelligent discussion' attack here. It's sad. My (maybe somewhat naive) recommendation: Just ignore them. If no-one rises, eventually they will get fed up, and go away to taunt someone else.

Regards,
Paul
