the list is in a lot of ways the same as dealing with the public, but
you get to hide behind a computer screen.....some people take full
advantage of that situation....just like other lists I belong too I see
acts of this nature alot more..... there are always going to be people
such as that. The day you realize and accept it, and move on, the better
you will feel.

The trolls will come and go, but the true spirit of the linux community
will always be here.
