Sometimes, it's not "almost". Just 3 months ago:

Which was followed up with:
<http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/2002-05/msg00219.html>
and I don't see any further discussion on that particular topic (I'll make the same disclaimer as the sender of the second message: I don't know one way or the other what might have happened or not happened or which sender is correct). Any other references to this kind of thing happening?
As the sender of the second message - it was a caution that people should investigate, not a statement that it didn't happen. All of the evidence I could gather indicate that it did, in fact, happen in at least some form. At the very least, other employees (whom I have know for years) said that he was gone, as of the date in question. They were not told the cause (as would be expected in most companies). Granted, believeing this means you'd have to trust *my* legwork. Or do your own. However, the 'almost' case certainly can't be argued. Just check the archives for the number of folks who've posted at the end of some thread about being 'asked to stop'. -- *************************************************************************** Joel Baker System Administrator - lightbearer.com lucifer@lightbearer.com http://users.lightbearer.com/lucifer/
