Actually, if you include all of the other NG's that he has poisoned, the

It amounts to only a few dozen people, and there are tens of millions of
people on USENET.

The blustering, yappy little dogs are a very tiny minority on USENET, but they
make an incredible amount of noise. And if anyone poisons discussion on
USENET, they do.


But it's nowhere near millions of readers who see your yappy little dog droppings. Even
among the relatively few readers who frequent the same groups and blogs that you do, many
ignore or killfile you.

Nevertheless, for the sake of argument, granted that not everyone who reads you responds
to you. Care to document the ratio of criticisms to love letters for those who have
responded to you?

Even allowing for the effect that people are more likely to take the time to write a
complaint or criticism than offer agreement or a compliment, your fan club is hardly in
evidence here or in your other hang-outs. I think I saw one newbie here who naively took
one of your posts at face value a while ago, and one limited concurrence in another group.
Got any others?
