Trolls are a fact of life on Usenet. Trying to control a troll by

Surrender plays into the troll's hands and thus is one of the worst
ways to respond to a troll.

I disagree. The goal of a troll is to suck you in to useless
discourse.
Ignoring them is what will frustrate them the most and most likely
cause them to get bored and troll elsewhere.


Good grief. you guys are starting to read like a chapter in alice in
wonerland.

Trolls are god's gift to us and I, for one, intend to cherish and nurture
them.

If I had no life, I would also. Fortunately, I have better things to do
than entertain trolls! :-)
