Re: Michael Hoax Post

Hark! I heard [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Sarah Monroe) say:

I've seen many different kinds of trolling over the years, but this has 
to have been the most vile.

Y'know, it briefly popped into my head that as you have been Michael's
Usenet spokesperson for the past week or so, why weren't *you* posting 
that news? Then I figured that I don't know your family's dynamics that

Hurray!!!! Please keep us updated; and unless a post comes from you
(I've been studying your headers), I won't believe it.

Would it be possible to get an address to send Michael a card?

Thanks for the news, Sarah! (Posted and e-mailed)
