- Man, I missed this the first time! Are you sprouting delusions of
- grandeur on us like Abian, Jack? Typical signs - remarks like "I have
- been getting millions of adulatory email messages concerning my theories
- - it's just you folks who *post* who keep knocking my ideas"... "I am
- being paid a significant amount of money by a top-secret multinational
- corporation to post lots of articles to many newsgroups," "Every article
- I write is going to translated into Swahili and broadcast live on Kenyan
- television during prime time", etc..
-
- Please, please tell us you're joking and haven't flipped out! Or give
- us a scintilla of evidence for your story! Surely it can't be all that
- hush-hush if they're gonna start broadcasting your stuff worldwide.
- Tell us which channel to tune to!
