<trummel -at- U -dot- WASHINGTON -dot- EDU> was logged in, and broadcast
the following, re degree programs at a certain educational
institution:

(This was followed by a diatribe that we can safely say is the
ultimate example of a "flame.")
Wow, and you "participated" for 8 years???
Will you be setting up a legal defence fund for your upcoming
libel trial? (Of course, I guess it's not libel if you can
_prove_ what you wrote. Which oughtta be interesting.)
Cheers,
Ken d'Albenas
