With all due respect, sir, when I review your past posts, I see more
discussion of OT issues than anything else. People scorn the one called
"Min" on a regular basis, for example, but at least he's smart enough to
make it difficult (but not impossible) to trace his origin. I'm not saying
your unintelligent, but you may not be using the best judgement in this
case. Think about the situations you keep encountering, including this
example you share here. You're posting OT, controversial issues with *real*
contact information and you expect people to look the other way. On the
contrary, you *should* be expecting email floods, website excess bandwidth
charges, or just about anything else since you're willingly sharing your
personal info. My own personal solution, if I happened to be in your
situation, would either be to post anonymously if determined to post OT
material or just post in an appropriate newsgroup. Otherwise, what else can
be expected?

My guess is that you're probably retired and bored, just looking for someone
to talk to even if that means getting people a little angry. After all,
what makes more stimulating conversation: a typical post asking an on-topic
question or something that might raise some red flags in peoples' minds?
Rather than engage in the latter, why not find a hobby to keep you busy? I
realize astronomy is only an occasional occupier at best for many of us, but
there are plenty of other things to do.... sports, reading and even just
plain net surfing can take up hours. And don't forget about "live" chat
like Yahoo chat, AOL, and ICQ (just be sure to protect your computer should
you decide to go this route.... viruses are very easy to acquire). If
you're retired, golfing can be a wonderful hobby and you might add a few
extra years to your life from the exercise. Are you married? If not, check
out your local singles clubs or attend church. Then, when you have secured
another outlet and the urge strikes to post something you know you
shouldn't, you can "click" into a mode that will take you to that hobby or
activity you have chosen. The computer will be turned off and you will have
saved yourself a lot of potential aggravation. My sense is though is that
you actually enjoy "stirring up the pot". In that case, the hobby of boxing
might serve nicely.... nothing that I know of, besides running or weight
lifting, relieves built up tension better (well... with one exception... the
"s" word)

Good luck ironing things out,

Mr. Charles Taylor, who posts as CLT, has decided to try to punish me
for what he sees as my bad behaviour by publishing two e-mail addresses
that were previously unavailable on the Internet in machine-readable
form. He is also soliciting you, the participants in SAA, to carry out
a denial-of-service attack against my personal web site. His stated aim
is to force me to cease posting on this forum.

Mr. Taylor posted the following under Richard DeLuca's thread "(OT)
Saying Goodbye is Never Easy."

It suddenly dawned on me that Davoud has posted his webpage.
It is www.davidillig.com
His address is //deleted//
But his website lists //deleted//

As I recall, we were having a lot of trouble with Shawn until a couple
of people started posting info on the dear boy (and, IIRC, not just
Shawn)

Perhaps if everyone here downloaded every picture on Davoud's website
(just to show how much we appreciate his OT drivel) he would feel \
the love and affection we have for his callous response to a respected
member who is leaving.

Make sure you open all the links at:
http://www.davidillig.com/astronomy.shtml as we wouldn't want to miss
any of
Davoud's photos.

Of course, if his bandwidth expense suddenly increased...

Of course, if a spambot were sorting through here, it would find:

//deleted: 29 repetitions of two previously unpublished e-mail
addresses.//

I believe that there is profound irony and hypocrisy in this most
mean-spirited and childish behaviour.

Mr. Taylor once issued a caution, in the Yahoo group that he moderates,
concerning the need to protect people's privacy
http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/LUNAR-OBSERVING/1131/.

It will be easy enough for me to fix any damage that Mr. Taylor may
have done. It will not be so easy for Mr. Taylor to recover his honor.

Davoud

Yes, I know Mr. Taylor's e-mail address, his home address, and his
office address; they are readily available. But to get _me_ to reveal
this information you would need to throw me naked onto a cold concrete
floor at Abu Ghraib and stomp on my testicles with your hob-nail boots.
Even then I would try to deceive you.
