Yeah, I know. This is exactly why no ISPs have abuse help desks that
respond, and nobody can get even the most trivial problems solved.
We do better. We answer *EVERY* abuse complaint. Which isn't much,
because we do the job correctly. And we care about the
reliability/usability of the 'Net as a whole.
So when the 'Net becomes partitioned by economics and politics, re-read
this letter and know that "I told you so". Know that being a smart-ass
wasn't worth the effort. It's already going there, and everyone whines
but very few of us are doing the job in a manner appropriate to actually
solving problems.
