Robert, nobody at Google is going to read your post to comp.lang.c and do something about it. If you want to complain to groups-abuse@google.com, by all means do so, but don't waste our time by posting it here. I don't know whether they care about off-topic posts, as opposed to actual spam, but you can take that up with them. If you want to complain to Rick, send him an e-mail. I've tried, and I'm convinced that it won't work, but you're welcome to try. I don't even see Rick's posts -- until people like you quote them in followups. As far as I'm concerned, Rick's own posts are a non-issue. You are a much bigger problem. A problem which I will now solve, at least for myself. But meanwhile, let me urge you one last time to STOP replying publicly to Rick's off-topic posts, or at least stop publicly quoting them. *PLONK* -- Keith Thompson (The_Other_Keith) kst-u@mib.org Working, but not speaking, for JetHead Development, Inc.
