Well, lets see how many Personal Attacks we can find in this post... According to rjc@gnu.ai.mit.edu:
Lefty, go stuff yourself. You have all the credibility of Blackwell. The only time you ever post a message is to ad hominem someone else. You've been doing this for 2+ years on the Extropians list -- lurking 99% of the time and only posting when you have a snide comment.
Well, that makes 5 out of 5 so far. Lets see if we can find more! (just look at your last message against wondered) Wow! We are 5 for 6. Not bad..... *NOT*
If you can't recognize the difference between a silly comment and a real murder threat, it's time for you to have a medical check up.

Well, that's two more!
I would never make a murder threat face-to-face particulary because I have no intention of physically damaging anyone.
And of course I won't even touch this one!
It is this fact alone which Detweiler, and you need to realize. Threats made over the net are vapor.
And were these even valid comments? You be the judge.
