Excellent post LarbGai, you've absolutely hit the nail on the head there.

Steve was usenet bully for years, causing trouble in just about every
group he frequented. However, bullying wasn't his only trait. Spamming
the groups (sometimes subtely, other times blatantly) was another trick
of his and used to self-promote and advertise his ailing photography
business.

He became very aggressive if another poster disagreed with him or
challenged him and subsequently used sock puppets in vindictive
campaigns against them.

So, on a day-to-day basis, Steve would be posting generally on-topic
content using his real name whilst at the same time operating a handful
of sock puppets to 'get at' anyone he didn't like. Of course he would
never get his hands dirtied doing this under his real name.

Steve's mistake was that in his ignorance, he assumed nobody was
intelligent enough to recognise this for what it was. Sure, some of the
regulars in the groups couldn't see through his act and those tend to be
the users who side with him. I'm sure if they knew the real truth that
would not be the case. The Howard Aslan-Chilla episode was a prime
example of this.

As the years passed, his behaviour was exposed. Not only by the DTS but
more and more regulars got to know the 'real' Steve. Of course after
this happened, he had no credability. His attempts to take the moral
high ground failed, it was no longer within his reach.

Hi,

And your post has exactly WHAT to do with rec.food.cooking? Nobody
here cares about whatever gobblededook you are jibbering on about so
please take your nonsense and leave us be. You WILL find people here
DO not suffer fools lightly, so if YOU want my advice, go back and
hide under whatever rock you came FROM. If in the future you have
something to contribute TO a thread about cooking, maybe you will be
welcome back...maybe I said.

Kind Regards,
Brian Anasta

So who died and made you Chairperson of the r.f.c. Cabal (TINC), may I
humbly ask?

Note to Barb: Has this "Brian" person paid its membership fees to you yet?

Yes you may humbly ask CattyCathy. Another piece of advice for you
also - if YOU plan on staying around here as a long term subscriber,
might be an idea for you to have a quick glance of the terms and
conditions of posting. I don't mean to sound harsh, but, it's just the
WAY we like to do things around here. Play by the rules and I'M sure
you will have a very enjoyable time. Look forward to your future
postings.

Kind Regards,
Brian Anasta

Cripes, I was hoping it was a recessive gene.

Tonight will be chicken cacciatore, tomorrow eggplant parm using the

Yesterday's high was 67, today's in the low 70s. Love it.

Even recessive genes come out and play from time to time. If that's the
case, amandaF and Nasty would have to do a whole bunch of procreatin' and
give special nurturing to the ones who show the most promise.

Honey, 112 degrees is pretty hot, but I would rather be hot than be too
cold. The perfect temp for me is around 85 degrees. Have you adjusted
to the heat fairly well?

Wayne, I have heard them called Sandies or Pecan Sandies or Wedding
Cookies. If you use Splenda they come out the same as if you used
sugar, but you still have to dust them in powdered sugar or it just
wouldn't be right.

And here in SoCal, I still have the heat on at night. We've had 7
months of January since January, and I for one am heartily sick of it.
Cloudy, gloomy, rainy in the morning with a soupcon of sunshine in the
afternoon. The car washes are gonna go bankrupt.

OB: Who'd a thunk that it'd still be chili weather in July?

Wayne, as a native Arizonan (my mother's family homesteaded in AZ when
AZ was still a territory), I can testify to the way we cremated our
dead: drag 'em out in the backyard for a couple of hours. <veg>

OB: One of my grandmother's ranch hands used to keep a plot of the
hottest chile peppers on the planet. We used to joke that it doubled
as snake repellent.

It's a South Park insider joke. In one episode, Al Gore warns people
about the dangers of something called Manbearpig. Manbearpig
reappears in the South Park Imaginationland movie. I imagine that you
don't watch South Park. I have an eight year old son who loves it. I
like it too.

It's South Park. It's about Al Gore. It's kind of like "Badges? We don't
need no stinkin' badges!" if you never saw "The Treasure of Sierra
Madre" but in the cartoon category.
