![]() "HK" wrote in message m... I've mentioned this one here a few times...now Mother Jones has a really nice piece about him. This fellow is the lowest of the low...and was involved in one of the biggest health care scams ever. Mother Jones Public Option Enemy No. 1 By Nick Baumann | Thu July 9, 2009 4:06 AM PST I need to find the link to the analysis of what it costs, in terms of energy consumption, to post stuff to a newsgroup. It is surprisingly expensive, relatively. The same amount of energy is consumed by those that download and read the stuff. It's time for a filter, I think. Not a Bozo filter. Windows Mail (and I think OE) allow you to create a filter that will automatically ignore or delete messages that exceed a certain, selectable number of lines. I think maybe 50-75 lines should do it. Harry's cut and paste was one of his shorter ones, but it still contains over 150 lines. This response is about 31 lines, including the reference and short quote. 50-70 lines should be enough for normal discussions and will certainly eliminate most of the energy wasting cut and pastes.
