      If you have the stomach for it, you can read all of CT's inanities on the old
      Crosstalk archives (the last year of) which are still available online. See
      the XTalk Home Page for a link to them.

      You'll also be able to see not only how much of a nut case this man was, but
      the whole course of events which led to my establishment of Xtalk as a
      moderated alternative to Crosstalk.

      To be fair to CT -- in addition to wanting to protect the List from the
      spewage he directed toward us, it was also the continual off topic rantings,
      abusive put downs, and perpetual self promotion of another old Crosstalker,
      TS, which convinced me that drastic measures need to be taken if Crosstalk was
      to survive.

      Yours,

      Jeffrey
