Hi,

I feel that Norm and Dick should take whatever measures THEY feel are
appropriate.  It's a sad reality that small minds will engage in such
diversions.

By the way, his domain and username this time was adolf hitler
<[log in to unmask]>

It is possible given some dynamic domain software that there is no ISP
control over "ZZN.COM".  Why bother with deliberation?  Simply limit EASI
membership to those who prove their intent.

With a fair amount of "benefit of the doubt" given, the end result will be
that professionals and other INTERESTED parties will still have access to
this wonderful resource as we have always had.  adolf will, no matter what
he decides to call himself today, be where he belongs:  out of our way and
probably pestering someone else.

It's a sad thing when someone has the capability to express themselves only
through such pointless behavior.  To go through life with your major
accomplishment being that you insulted someone you never met and not even to
do that inperson is laughable.  Such a person is truly to be pitied.

By the way, adolf, if you wish to insult someone in person. . .

I agree, and do not feel that anyone who uses spoofed addressing and
aliases has any right to participate in a professional and serious user
list on any topic.  It is unfortunate that the ISP involved is not
responding to misuse like this.  Membership in an online community can be
limited to people who post under their real identity making real
cntributions in accordance with its purpose.  There are other forums out
there uncensored/unmoderated free speech on any topic desired.
