- Who the fuck are you? I thought that any educational institution in
- Oakland had been torched long ago.

- The fact of the matter is that a lot of people here (based on what
- they've said) don't like kill files. I include myself in that
- category. Why passively ignore them when you can actively drive them
- out? Really. Where's the fun?

- Tsk, tsk. And the iron maiden is out for cleaning, to boot. I
- guess you'll have to be punished by returning to lurking. Don't
- expect a pity party on your behalf.
