Well, I dunno about easy but he was often pretty funny. I used to
think that he was actually an attempt by some twisted grad students
somewhere to code a usenet chat AI... a spew-bot.

If you like to stroll down memory lane, his day-glo words are still
hanging in the cyber-air, writ large and full of signs & portents.
Actually, a collected edition of his various exchanges here and over
on rec.boats.cruising would probably be a million seller.

I particularly enjoyed his efforts to convince us that he could prove by
trigonometry that a piston travelled further on the upstroke than the
downstroke (or maybe it was vice versa)
