The endless question. Years ago Dean Stark posted to news:scruz.general and made a few enemies (he was always going on about his ex-girlfriend and "hackers" as being the chief amongst them), these "enemies" created a couple hundred newsgroups using his name as a sub-hiearchy alt.fan.dean-stark.* . Many of the group names were designed to make ol' Dean mad, as he really couldn't just let it go. He spent years whining and complaining about the newsgroups, but the more he whined, the more groups appeared, and people began using some of the groups on a regular basis. I have no idea if the guy is still around or not, but chances are if he is, we may get a visit from him and get treated to some more whining. Tran always posts with at least one dean-stark newsgroup....I wonder if he's the ex...hehe -- ___________ .__.__ \_ _____/ _____ |__| | | __)_ / \| | | | \ Y Y \ | |__ /_______ /__|_| /__|____/ \/ \/
