Look for an off-list message on that, no need to make it easier for 
the a--hole to find us elsewhere.

But, I'd like to think there is a better solution. Is Rick really so 
hands-off that he'll let one idiot poison the well?

This is like one of those post-9/11 situations where people would 
say, "If you do or don't do X, the terrorists win."

I'm sorry I posted something to the list, in the first place, but I 
thought that everyone liked Tim. All but one, apparently.
