It could, of course, also be someone, from a set of several million, that find Mr. Rosen to be such as odious prick that they did it just to drive him out of their misery. Just thinking out loud..

Come ON, folks. I've met Alexis. I don't like many things he does, and I'm sick and tired of the shitty Usenet feed he gives me :-), but he's much less of an "odious prick" than practically any other ISP owner, large or small. If anyone was looking for an "odious prick" to harrass, they'd probably start with Barry Schein of world.std.com. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
