| What I hoped to achieve was to be able to conduct a conversation with you

  So quit being so fucking obnoxious and annoying, you pestering idiot.

| I hoped to make you see that you engage in the same behavior that you

| the paragraph above and not be rocked by its blatant hypocricy.

  Of course you are.  Mirrors are forbidden in certain places because of you.

| Many people whom I believe could make constructive contributions here have
| fled c.l.l. because of you.

  I have to fight /someone/.  You are one of them at a large number of
  occasions.  Take some responsibility for your own goddamn evil behavior.

| I know because they have sent me private emails encouraging my efforts
| here.

  Ah,  Brilliant.  You're a fucking /saint/ on a holy mission from God to
  save the world.  And there are nutjobs insane enough to cheer you on!

| I hoped to change things so that they might return.

  Quit attacking me.  Quit attracking the other nutjobs in more fights.

| I hoped to change things so that visitors to c.l.l. would not made to
| feel like pariahs for taking umbrage when someone calls them a shithead.

  How about how I feel after yet another round of you evil bastards?

  Such selective sympathy is a good symptom of true evil.

| Now I have had my fill of it for a while, so I am going walkabout (again)
| where there be not Naggums (to paraphrase one of the people who has
| written me privately concerning my efforts here).

  Good.  Leave us alone for good.

| If there's anyone left out there who still cares about what I have to
| say, my email address is gat@jpl.nasa.gov.

  Fuck off, Erann Gat.  This time, it was your fault that Ray Blaak and
  Raffael Cavallero got back here and started with their fantastically evil
  behavior, once again.
