The big problem is that, instead of asking for further information, what 
this jeff is doing, is using the list, to encourage computer crime.

Rather than rationally saying, "okay, give us some more details, so we 
can give your claims a more detailed evaluation", he has basically 
said, "ignore this clot. Computer crime is good.", without bothering to 
consider what is involved.

If jeff waugh decides to use the list, to encourage computer crime, then 
there is not much that I can do about that.
