You see Pete, I'm not concerned at all for spam - I'm a really old dog
at this and I know my ropes - but I'm seriously concerned with the
mental health of some frustrated little trolls that scour Usenet up and
down to find a flame war to start, and they get so incensed in their
little pointless wars that I seriously question their mental health.

I don't want to give these little frustrated spotty kids an excuse to
get out of their mum's basement to head off for my office to vent their
unstable mental state rants.

That's why I've been closing a balance about my presence in this NG, and
it strikes me like a hammer blow in the face that I gave so much in
return for nothing.

My time is immensely more valuable, so is with great regret that I'm
bidding you and the NG adieu.

I know the trolls will now rejoice for their Final Victory, and take
this as a retreat. Feel free to think what you want, the loss is yours,
not mine.

I get more time for my business, my family and my children, and at the
same time get rid of some annoying little pimples.

It's a win-win for me...

Don't bother replying, I'm already unsubscribed.
