Alan is a victim of newsgroup users who feel it appropriate to sledge
another users character...

unfortunately those who do it, often do so hiding behind an anonymous
newsgroup poster, such as www.news2web.com and the like...

essentially, it is something to ignore... and we can but hope it will leave
aus.bicycle in due course....

Alan Erskine is a well known Australian netkook, psychopath,

and coward
who lives in Melbourne. He usually stalks and harasses the

posters of the
sci.space groups, although he is known to make excursions into

a wide range
of other groups for the purposes of trolling and stalking and

harassing the
participants there.


As an analogy for survival then, we might put ourselves in the
shoe of the troller who may just be defensive about his cats.
What would you do, when time to head for the hills and you have
cats in your family? This troll may be huffed about the lack of
sensitivity of those who blithely ignore the plight of our
domestic cats in an end of the world scenario, and his apparently
devilish antics are his way of getting attention--for his cats.
Imagine the anxiety of someone expecting to carry cats into the
hills and teach them survival skills.

His attention to astronauts suggests there is something boggling
to Mr. Erskine about not making cats part of the US Space
Program. In some way, he may have identified with the previous
space dog and monkey, and now resents exclusion of the cat. In
sympathy we should try to make a place for cats in space, who
after all may have something to share there.

Sounds like a lot of annoying juvenile behavior to me.
