Rick, that's not how this works. David can post whatever he likes. By posting to Usenet, you give everyone implicit permission to read and quote what you write. If you don't like what he posts, ignore it. If you use a real newsreader, use a killfile. (If you use Google Groups, I don't know whether that's an option, but a Google search for "google groups killfile" might turn up something useful.) It's probably useful to let him know (once) that you won't be reading his posts so he doesn't waste his time, but you don't get to tell him not to reply to yours. (Well, you can tell him, but he can ignore you.) In a similar vein, my filters are newsgroup-specific. I was already filtering out your posts in comp.lang.c. I will now do so in comp.std.c. -- Keith Thompson (The_Other_Keith) kst-u@mib.org Working, but not speaking, for Philips Healthcare void Void(void) { Void(); } /* The recursive call of the void */
