  Hm. What about freedom of speech? His postings may be tedious (though perhaps
  useful as a pure white noise generator), but this hardly merits "NET BAN".
  A more worthy target is one who advertises his "WHAM pride" (keep watching and
  you'll see what it means): something that is actually offensive to some people
  Even then, free speech should prevail (much as "WHAM pride" turns my stomach).
