Just to make sure I understand this:

I can be contacted by email, on IRC (EFNet) as "humble", or any of those other services which won't be named, usually as "humble226".

Very odd that you use the service yet bash it so much...

However, I'm concluding from the type of behavior displayed that most of you manage nothing larger than a couple T-1s.
I'd like to apologise to the list for mentioning EFNet and inviting this group of people with excessively large mouth to brain ratios to post and further legitimize the noise.

Enough people. It is quite obvious that IRC is a religious topic to a LOT of people. My original response and Richards original email were intended as sarcasm. It is not at all uncommon for IRC networks to be under attack. Since some people take IRC *MUCH* more seriously than one can imagine (keep the death threats coming) I guess we can't be sarcastic when someone mentions IRC. The email that is quoted above from Richard is obviously an apology for getting involved in the discussion. I can't imaging why you would attack him for such. I apologise for getting into the discussion. Attack me for doing so if you must. Do it off list. --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc
