[Linux-aus] linux-aus Digest, Vol 47, Issue 45

[Noel Butler]

I stopped reading your trolling before I got too far,,why? simply
because you selectively quote and base your 
BS on that, rather than the full bit, especially about the HRC, moronic
twits like you, have no idea, and by the way. do not profess to claim
you speak for me when you have no idea on my experiences with working
with the HRC or other legal entities.

I did formulate other comments, but stopped., and deleted them once I
woke up to the ranting trollish fool that you are

dont waste my time, or your time by responding  because im getting too
old do deal with wankers like you.
