A wise man once told me "never presume to know what the other guy is
thinking."

We don't know that the troll even reads the threads after he starts them, or
that he would alter his posting if the threads weren't responded to. You
also don't know how long I've been lurking here before I've been posting.
You also don't know if the troll might in fact retreat due to my plan.

The Internet is funny like that.

This troll has been here *lots* longer than you have. The majority of the
regular posters here agreed some time ago that it's best if the troll were
just ignored. You and your crusade just give him reason to continue his
trolling.
