This is also secret Native American Medicine, that I suppose I
technically have copyright on because it hasn't been published before.
But you can't pattent tricks these days, at least not easily. Inktomi
is the Native American spider, and his two tricks are spinning spider
webs, and poisoning insects that get caught in his web.

The Native Americans are very good at both, because they are experts at
sleight of hand, and also almost all the drugs in the world come from
America. There is an old saying that says all magic is just smoke and
Mirrors, and there is an Aztec god named smoking mirror who was a
trickster and a sorceror, as well as a murdering theif.

And the native americans developed sleight of hand, and tricks they
could do with horse hair and silk. They would just hold a piece of
horse hair in their palms and manipulate objects to make it appear as
if they were doing telekinesis. Today we just call it sleight of hand
and there are tons of books published on how you can really do it
without invisible thread.

Magicians don't really do it however, they just lie to us and use
invisible thread. So here are some card tricks to think about that you
can do with invisible thread.

BTW, I encourage everyone to report Corey's crossposting abuse to
groups-abuse@google.com so they'll take some action on this. Maybe if he
gets his privileges revoked he'll start to listen that we don't like
crossposting.

I imagine you did, however you might notice that Corey crossposts to
several unrelated groups of which most have asked him to stop posting in
them period. So, my "abuse" is directed at his abuse of Usenet. Got it?
Big difference between being "abusive" to a person and abusing a service.

I don't hold those same beliefs. If I call a spammer a fuctard, I am not
guilty of anything nor do I lose any "rights" to criticize them, or
anyone for that matter. That's a little rule you made up, too bad it
doesn't play for most of us. Regardless, Corey is little more than a
spammer in this instance.

Indeed you do not. neither do you lose the right to cut our own fingers
off if you choose, but you wouldnt call that anything but stupid either.

Then why are you still trying to persuade me to your line of thinking
and why did you present it as a rule? I never saw the words "in my
opinion" in your first post, Mrs. Netnanny.

You already agreed that he is abusing the service called usenet, so he's
abusing *everyone* here. Now what was your point again? I notice you're
the ONLY person coming to his defense...ever wonder if there's a reason
for that?

David Carter writes:

Not true in general. AOL raised their prices by $2 a month just
because of spam. We all pay for the abuse - directly and indirectly.

In this particular case, Corey isn't in the same class as the
massively abusive spammers. I just don't agree with your
generalization.

A single killfile entry based on Corey's address won't kill all of the
replies he generates. We have to broaden it, and perhaps block
legitimate messages.

In The Grand Scheme Of Things Eric H. Is A Worm On Native Soil, And I
Am Just A Rat. He isn't someone I have to worry about, but these
others creations are:

The spider spins its web of lies and tricks victims into its teritory
and then poisons them with drugs. While the coyote ships the drugs in
and ships people out, taking all of their money. The coyotes run in
packs and are the most feared. While the snake is a generous serpent
who speaks with a fork tong. He makes friends with the spiders and
coyotes first, and then he bites them and poisons them himself. The
snake is the real wizard, and he isn't a trickster, but he is
suductive. The spider and coyote run magic tricks, while the serpent
does his best to teach the ancient wisdom. But the spider and coyote
pay off the pigs, so that the serpent has to fight 3 animals.
