nothing else in his sad little life, he almost singlehandedly destroyed
one of the most useful NewsGroups on the UseNet. *And this despite repeated

This just isn't true. The founders destroyed the group because they
were unwilling to allow book reviews and other posts that were
slightly off-topic. RF and other interesting, entertaining and
offbeat posters were relentlessly persecuted and criticized, causing
the group's demise.
