[Fwd: Princeton's reputation]
Just in case those rude emails really did come from a Princeton
faculty member, I tried the following email using the last name
of President of the University. It hasn't bounced yet.

Sir,
Since I'm certain that the reputation of Princeton is of concern
to you, I thought I'd forward a few samples of the many rude
email that *may* have been sent to a mailing list by one of your
faculty members. Messages that make Princeton look..... Ummm?
Lets say not quite dignified?
Points to ponder if the messages really came from Jim Kroger:
1) The bottom of every message explains that to unsubscribe the
message must go to "debian-user-request" not "debian-user." No
one on debian-user can subscribe or unsubscribe him.
2) How did he ever manage to subscribe, if he can't figure out
how to unsubscribe - it's the same process?
3) Why does he have such a problem subscribing or unsubscribing
when the average teenager does not?
4) Does he really thing rudeness and profanity will help him?
5) Is Princeton really proud of him?
