I received an e-mail from my ISP about a complaint about the link I posted
about the cat herding. I talked to the head of security (among others) and
they were very amused that "some people" are so convinced of my undisputed
power in this group. :-)
They (my ISP) have taken care of the problem, so that any more abuse
complaint are to be filed in "File 13". snicker I explained to them
about katysails and ganz how they are laughed around the globe in Usenet
Abuse departments and they said they could understand why.
Bwahwhahahwahahahaaaa!
Seems the netkkkops think posting one link constitutes flooding! Watch out
Crantz!
Here's a short excerpt:

This person is attempting to disrupt the alt.sailing.asa newsgroup by
cross-posting off-topic messages to multiple newsgroups in an attempt to
get a lot of off-topic responses. This behavior has been going on for
months. Please help us.
This appears to be coming from your OK server, according to the traceroute
