I had the following exchange with the postmaster at u.cc.utah.edu:

> What is this, and what's it doing on the tech writer mailing list? ...


The forged posting originated at the Marriott Library Computer Lab,
a lab we have been having trouble with for about a month.

When acting this round of complaints we discovered
that the person was still there... I called over there, and told them
he was the person on mac-82 of their lab, and to hold him for the
police. They let him go without even getting his ID or name.

*sigh*

The police now have a discription, and apparently he is a regular
there, so we may yet catch him.
