Gates III, was identified as living in a :small town in Pennsylvania (I will refrain from posting his exact :address). This is really interesting. Bill's ('henry's) real name came across the Net, in a.r.s, a coupla months ago. But 'Bill' and 'Gates' are really pretty bloody common names, so it was hardly a risk to his individual security. Like being in the phone book under 'Smith' -- no-one will call bar the telemarketers. 1. What is it with outing anonymous critics? Most of the six hundred odd regular posters here get nary a peep from the Co$. Is it some doctrinal thing from Ron that I've missed? I mean, henry's way with invective is really something pretty special. I guess being an alt.angst poster helps. But, y'know, words really DON'T call down curses from heaven. So, I guess that's an SP badge of honour: you, henry, have been deemed IMPORTANT. (Oh yeah, the clams have been calling here all today, trying to speak to anyone other than me. Wish we had an effective way to record all incoming calls w/out fucking around with the answering machine ... Friday. Maybe Monday.) (I'd like to see them raiding OUR computers, too. Without an axe AND an oxy-torch. They're fixed in place pretty damned securely, ever since someone a coupla years ago stole the entire guts of one PC, leaving just the shell behind ...) Listen up: if our WORDS can hurt the Church so much, then they are fucked. Utterly. 2. In addition, the Church has managed to completely piss off ANOTHER newsgroup. And alt.angst isn't a collection of dilletantes like alt.religion. kibology (are there any Kibologist regulars left? sorry if I've missed you ...) -- when they're pissed off, they're PISSED OFF. It'll be good to see. Maybe you could try for alt.suicide.holiday next. Imagine what someone who really sincerely didn't care whether they lived or died went into a Co$ with destruction on their mind. I dunno, it's just an idea. -- Reverend Doctor David Gerard, KoX, SP 4.03 (awaiting verification of SP 5) Prestige Elite(tm) Research Church of the SubGenius "Servicing the Prestige Elite(tm) since 1985!"
