Seriously, do you think this is worth of a post to the whole list?

Your signal to noise ratio has been quite low since you've joined.
This list is not an online blog about people's lives, even if the posts only
relate to the linux/unix/computer portion thereof

I've asked you a few times already (in private) to exercise good judgement
before posting and you've failed repeatetly.

Please read, and re-read http://www.svlug.org/policies/list-policy.shtml
You've already been killfiled by a certain number of people, at some case it
becomes more efficient to do it at the list level if you get my drift.

In the meantime, if you're thinking about posting, and it's not a precise
question, with the steps you've already been through to try and fix the
problem, as well as any details needed for people to help you, then please
don't post.

Thanks
Marc

PS: This is on the list, just as a general reminder in case you feel it
might apply to you too :)
