Is this a desperate Microsoft's attempt to slow Linux development by
insulting developers? ;-))

I mean, what other purpose can this possibly have? Unless, of course,
some unintelligent person got linux-kernel address in a list of
prepackaged "n millions email addresses for sale" (and then he must be not
moron*2, or moron^2, but at least e^moron).

I vote moron ... hes within a day's drive of MS though.

ISP can be contacted at: 1-800-356-LOOK (5665) Considering it's been the
same dork with no response to complaint emails the isp is looking spam
friendly. Lets cost them a bit and see if they hurry up and terminate
this loser.
