- (Having probably violated every principle of netiquette a hundred
- times over yesterday, I'm not one to talk, but ...) may I just

- them publically is *definitely* not a good idea, under any
- circumstances? (You don't even then get the pleasure of watching
- your victim publically flailing about trying to reply.)
