This post is way off topic, so I will post one message concerning it.
I appologize in advanced for any language whoopsies.

Robin,

This isn't the "pine-info" mailing list.

This list is entitled "hwg-graphics", and is designed for stupid
questions along with the not-so-stupid questions.
If that fact upsets you, sir, I suggest you unsubscribe immediately and
start your own hwg-graphics-robin-robin-robin-technical-gurus-only mailing
list.

Of course, a list like that kind of defeats the purpose of having it,
doesn't it, since all members would be required to already know the answer
to any question that could ever possibly be asked.. perhaps you could sit
around and discuss how peaceful the mailing list is without any
questions..

I listened to your drivel on the pine-info list for long enough to make
me unsubscribe to it, and I refuse to tolerate your general grumpiness on
a group designed to help people who are either just starting out, or just
want to know how to do that "oh so cool" effect they saw on a page the
other day.  So either get off of your soapbox or leave the group
alltogether.

OH.. and by the way:

If you are having such a problem with your mail, Robin, try unsubscribing
to some of the lists you are on.  It isn't the fault of the Internet at
large that you recieve 500 email messages a day.

Here is a little snipet from a whois query for "hwg.org" :

HTML Writers Guild, Inc (HWG-DOM)
   PO Box 2407
   Carmel Valley, CA 93924-2407

If you hate us Yankees so much, then why are you using a service that is
housed in the US and has a mailing address in the US?  If you want to be
true to yourself, go find a German mailing list to gripe on.  How about
"yankees-suck-germany-rules" or
"germans-have-bigger-<censored>" or even
"robin-socha-is-a-twit"


This is the last I will say in the matter.  All your future posts will be
procmail'd to /dev/null.. you ass.
