Those that address the wintrolls should be advised to stop doing so. I
replied to trolls when I first joined this newsgroup several months ago and
could not discern truth from lies. They keep coming in because they receive
an argumentative discussion. It makes them feel like they get some work done
for their money.
I stopped reading these posts altogether. It is the best method for staying
out. No read, no urge. Sooner or later, the trolls lose interest and go back
under the bridge.
