You can't kill file them via Google which was the point of the original
message.
But you knew that already, didn't you?
Roy's messages are sometimes useful, but they are easily found elsewhere
and with truthful, accurate subject lines I might add.
If he would concentrate on Linux advocacy instead of Microsoft hate
his messages might be more useful.
As for your digest Mark, that is almost completely useless.
Add some links and possibly it might be useful, but as it stands, you are
just rehashing the same stuff over and over again, which, is just boring
and bandwidth wasting as well.
