Why Airplanes Fly - Voids Above A Planar Sheet

"Dudley Henriques" wrote

Trolls are a fact of life on Usenet. Trying to control a troll by trying
to control how others deal with that troll is a fruitless venture destined
to failure as in many cases the person attempting this control on the
forum innocently becomes a troll themselves.

It is on this premise where we part ways.

I have no problem with ignoring the occasional hit and run troll, and
ignoring the people that continue to enable him.

When one comes and dominates the group for as long as this one has, and many
people (good people) leave because of it, (and they have left this group in
droves) something needs to be done.

I may be tilting at windmills, but I've always been the type to be prone to
do a little of that. I feel some people need encouragement to change their
views on handling a troll, just as much as you feel the need to encourage
people to change how they fly so they are safe.

I may fail, or become a pain in the butt to some, but I have to try, or I
would not be true to myself. I can live with trying and still failing, but
can not live with not trying.

Such it is in life.
