Geez, Rich, spare us the melodrama. Harassment comes with the territory of "fame," even small time fame. While it may be illegal and it's definitely annoying, you opened the doors for destructive criticism with your own diatribe of the RPI Band on a DL that is read all over the planet. (oh, heavens, talking about the band is how i got started on hockey-L :-) If you step into the spotlight, you make yourself all the easier a target for tomatoes. or oranges. ;-) if you'd presented a more constructive criticism of the band (e.g. the desperate need for more horns and more organization), and didn't spend so much time applauding your own merits as a fan, maybe people wouldn't find you so hard to deal with. You're a good guy in real life, but your net image is a little rough around the edges. and IMO, "Gospel John" still sounds _great._ (had to sneak that in.) :-) Ross RPI '91 - Top Notch Tuba/Cowbell player, America's Pep Band. :) Go you Engineers!
