Okay, you're a good Christian and a bad Engineer, on that choice. It's your choice, tho. Not everyone needs killfiles. I've never actively used them, really, since I can generally just not read posts by people I don't want to be reading, and would still get traces of their stuff captured in quoted segments in the replies of folks I *do* read, even if I did use killfiles. Killfiles like motorcycle helmets are for those who need them.
