Everyone, I'd suggest go looking at:

I think everyone should do that ... and so eventually, hopefully,

geocities will ban him - even just from the sheer number of people
who ask for him to be banned.

This fellow sounds like a first class jerk. 
But I was under the impression that the net was about freedom.
His page may be crap and what he says may offend the hell out of you, but
you are not being forced to read his crap and you are free to respond to
his garbage in kind.

To ask a third party to ban him because he offends you is too much like
these concerned citizens that show up at school board meetings demanding
that this or that book be banned from the school libraries.
That is censorship and I am apposed to that. 
We are supposed to be intelligent people capable of deciding for ourselves
if we choose to visit a given site.
I am glad you posted a warning about this jackass and I will avoid his
page, but I will not ask a third party to intervene and censor him.
By all means flame him, but please lets leave talk of banning and
censorship to those benighted individuals that are incapable of bearing the
very existence of something they disapprove of. 

If he starts to spread his crap by E-mail to our list or us personaly however.


T.H.
Now I lay me down to sleep if Caroline should find me before I wake.
I pray the lord my soul to take.
