I guess I'm not being clear. I am not saying the request in the OP is,
or is not worthy. In fact, I'm explicitly avoiding that.

Let me put it this way. Suppose you were with a group of people all
doing something you wanted to do, and then some one you don't even know
walks up and says, "hey stop doing that". Are you going to stop doing
something you want to just because someone you don't even know asks you
to. I know most people wouldn't.

In other words no one in this or any other news group is going to stop
doing something just because some asks them to. If there are posts you
don't like, them simply don't read them. There is nothing you can do to
stop them. If you think you can . . .

Yes, but... If all or most people in the newsgroup would never reply
to any thread that contains MXSMANIAC, then he would perhaps go away.
I know this is not going to work, just a hope. And, yes, you called me
delusional before, but that's only because you're jealous that you
don't hear the little voices...

The issue -- I was going to say 'problem' but if it is, it's of our own
making --- with MX is it's like watching a car crash. You know what's
going to happen, you're just not sure when or where, but somewhere in
many of his threads will be a well written but really misinformed
remark or statement.

There are enough readers to at least offer information that's more
correct, and that may help the ignorant bystander.

But man, watching him twitch at the end of the of the rope he tied
around his own neck is almost a compelling sight.

Think of it, really. He often posts in the middle of his night, maybe
strapped and harnessed into his simulator chair, bored because his
simulated airplane is flying in the enroute structure on a simulated
auto pilot, and he's composing messages to the various news groups.

Watching what happens,and occasionly pulling on his rip cord is part of
the fun -- don't take it seriously. We have real lives, do real things,
fly real airplanes. We know, both in our minds and our hearts, what he
has never experienced. Even more telling, he often dismisses our
experience as unimportant.

He's never been there, never done that, and doesn't have the tee shirt,
either.
