I submitted the following message to SI's webmistress. If you want to second the motion, click here and leave a message: webmistress@techstocks.com ____________________________ Dear Webmistress Jill: There is a poster, possibly emotionally disturbed, on the "Harvard Scientific(HVSF) Hot$$-male impotency medicine" SI thread who is continually posting abusive attacks on SI members. These posts if taken individually could be overlooked as a minor nuisance; however, the shear abundance of these posts as of late, are adding up one by one to the "last straw" that broke the camel's back. Here are just a few recent examples: ETHNIC SLUR RE: ASIANS EAT CATSMessage 3355542 Message 3362232 HUNG LIKE A BULLMessage 3361850 HOMOPHOBIC GAY-BASHING INNUENDOMessage 3362082 BESTIALITYMessage 3366247 Many of the readers of the thread have requested that Jack calm down and get back to posting useful information instead of his recent childish and abusive flames. At what point does SI consider enforcing section B of the Silicon Investor Terms of Use agreement: B. You agree not to use the service for illegal purposes or for the transmission of material that is unlawful, harassing , libelous, invasive of another's privacy, abusive , threatening, harmful,vulgar , obscene , tortious, improper or otherwise ojectionable, or that infringes or may infringe the intellectual property or other rights of another. If nothing can be done at this point, I guess I will just have to personally freeze him out by not responding to his posts, or by trying to ignore his posts entirely. Sorry to bother you with this. In any case, thank you for providing an otherwise awesome forum for the exchange of information! I remain a very satisfied member, Bruce Olsten
