I'll have you know one thing buddy!

No one tells me to have fun while masturbating!

So there! :-)

I'm late, but I just wanted to get mine in.

IETF did the same thing old Vernon did -- publicly post a private
email.  You *know* what is wrong with that.  Out the other sides of
your
asses you tell people about "Netiquette," don't you.  Dweebs!

It's a mailing list. It's for people who participate or are interested
in
the IETF process to discuss things. A MAILING LIST. Can you spell that?
I'm
sorry, but when you send mail to a mailing list, it automatically gets
sent
to all the members of that list - what part of that did you not
understand?
Can I suggest that you read http://www.ietf.org/maillist.html and you go
away and learn some basic stuff about how e-mail works, and how many
people
use it. And learn that sending things to mailing lists that you want to
be
kept quiet is a really stupid idea. Oh yeah, all these mails are being
archived on the web - you knew that, right?

I am really amused.

So am I.

I am really surprised at how juvenile and hateful some of you are.  I
have
rec'd messages from about a dozen of you, calling me names and hurling
false accusations at me.  When I reply, my mail is returned.

You really are having problems sending mail aren't you? You know, there
is
a
working group around here that might help out...

Several of you are "grasping at straws" to try to find some wrong
doing
that I have done.  The fact is that I am a small business owner with
high
moral standards of honesty and treatment of my fellow human beings.  I
don't spam and I don't aid spammers.  I don't speculate on domain
names.  My services have strict anti-abuse policies that, in one case,
carries a monetary penalty.  I cancel some accounts on the first
complaint.

Your mother must be very proud of you.

Go ahead and write to me using acronyms you know I won't understand.
Hell,
one guy doesn't even know the meaning of "ironic."  Listening to
Alanis
Morisette music?  She doesn't understand that word, either.  If you
can't
understand in English, so be it.

OK, I could have written this mail in English (I'm English myself), or
French, Italian, Spanish, German or Russian. I'll let you pick.

Incidentally, I believe it is you who does not understand the irony of
sending a mail complaining about anti-spammers activities and how you
are
a
legitimate business, with an advert at the bottom, to a mailing list
read
by
nearly everybody involved (and many who aren't like myself) with the
workings of the IETF and individual working groups.

You're starting to sound stupid. You look stupid. You know, I think
there
might be a good chance here that you are stupid. No offense, but you
really
are bing quite silly about all this...

The fact is that you folks are losers and you're not too bright.  I
don't
care how good you are at writing code and doing math -- you're
losers.  Y'all crack me up.

We also run the world. You see, you've actually stumbled across the
*real*
illuminati. Look out of your window. See that guy across the street
staring
at your window? He's with us.

In all seriousness, there are times when I read an RFC and *I* think the
IETF must be stupid, but I can assure you that they aren't. Some of them
even graduated high-school.

I have a nice house, lots of money, a hot girlfriend, and I enjoy it
all
immensely.  I also have the ability to imagine and create new things.
Go
ahead and hate me -- I can't say I blame you.

You don't want to even imagine what some of the guys on this list earn
in
consulting fees. They just don't boast about it. They're secure in
themselves and don't feel the need to. I'm sorry that isn't the case for
you.

As for creating and imaginig new things, can I direct you to
http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt where you will find the list of
3240
documents that define how every nook and cranny of the Internet works,
having been developed since April 7 1969 - if you don't find anything
imaginative in that lot, you're not getting the point. The people you
are
dismissing made your domain selling business a possibility - without
them
you'd be nothing. They don't ask for anything in return, and many of
them
hate what you do for a business, but the least you can give them is a
small
amount of respect.

I'm having sex with a beautiful woman and making money while not
hurting
anyone in any way.

All that whilst typing this e-mail! Well done! I'd try doing that, but
I'm
in a cybercafe right now and might get some funny looks. Incidentally,
how
are you making money whilst having sex and writing this mail? Is she
paying
you? Wow, you are a lucky man. We're sooooo jealous.

Have fun masturbating

Laughs out to the guy who wrote 'is there any other way' in answer to
that.
Again, I'd try having fun masturbating, but being in the cybercafe and
all
that...

and writing abusive mail to a man
who would teach you some respect, but as you know, can't reach you
right
now.

Ooooh! I'm scared! :-)

Seriously, you sent mail to a mailing list without doing any research,
you've now realised you screwed up, and although we already knew you
were
pretty vengeful (e.g. the initial mail you sent to us), there really is
no
need to take it all so personally. Just go away and leave us alone and
we'll
all try to avoid you. Especially if we see you on the highway and you're
trying to have sex whilst driving as well. And remember to check who
your
mail is going to next time before you sent it.
