I'm sure you're right. There's been some idiot trolling news.groups
for the past several weeks, impersonating other people and posting
this sort of garbage. I didn't check the headers on the phony "Mike"
article, but it's probably the same creep impersonating him. This jerk
has been trying to ruin discussions of several new groups, not just the
comp.databases.postgresql.general discussion. There even have been forged
votes on some newsgroups and forged emails sent to news.groups regulars,
all before the comp.databases.postgresql.general discussion came along.
There apparently is someone (or maybe several people) trying to disrupt
the newsgroup creation process and I'm afraid the postgresql groups are
getting caught in the crossfire.
