Yes, but slrn is 1985ish trash. If you use it just because it
makes pgp garbage unviewable you have serious problems.

I use it because I like it better than all the other newsreaders, and
I have tried them all. The fact you continually berate and negate
people in this ng for silly insignificant reasons indicates you're
the one with serious problems.

No, the fact that you would imply that anyone should switch to slrn
to accommodate pgp trash trolls tells us that _you_ have the
problem, sir.

pgp trash trolling is not insignificant. It's a butt-ugly waste of
bandwidth that cannot be justified, especially by a bunch of people
posting under pseudonyms in a.o.l.s.

Hilarious.

If that's the only indication you've had that the RM troll has serious
problems, then I wonder how you can see his posts in the first place.

pgp sigs are insignificant compared to untrimmed posts ...like yours.

Hey now, careful with that "we" stuff. As irritating as it is, I've
followed every one of the troll's incarnations and promptly bozo-binned
it.

Though with the morphing, I'm getting real close to killfiling

I know that it's only Sunday, but we have a clear winner:
For diligently killfiling the PGP troll and for never adding
to the crossposted threads, I award you, Ciro The Spider-Man,
the coveted title of Slacker Of The Week (sound of cheering).
