KB may be off his trolley and my response to him may have been off-list as
none of this twaddle belongs here. However, as you will know if you read
your list subscription bits and pieces, this list is managed by Stephen
Early and hosted by greenend.org.

If it helps your cornflakes settle better, do be advised that the pettiness
of complaining over a rude, crass, misinformed, irrational and irrelevant
outburst would never have occurred to me til prompted by your good self.
Life is much too short and, doubtless, none of us is perfect and most of us
have off days (or should that be off-days?).

That is the general aim. If you feel another such interjection coming on, it
might be best first to ascertain the facts and then, if you must, take up
the matter off-list; it contributes nothing here.

Crypto & relevant law, methinks, though many of us can't seem to resist the
odd bit of gossip about general spookery and the wickedness there is in this
world.
