  Amon Goeth (and I'm certain that is not his real name) used to be
 the moderator of FLAME.  It was so obscene that I had to restrict
 it here to adults only.  The FIDO gods finally took notice and
 pulled it off the backbone.  Meanwhile, Amon likes to hang out in
 the Mormon conf, as well as Steve Winter's BIBLE area etc.  His
 style is to look at all the people posting in a given area, then
 write a ton of messages all TO: SYSOP and all FROM: the various
 people posting in that area.  So, he even posted messages from you,
 from Elvis etc.  He phony's up his origin node number, and in this
 case he used your address for his origin line.  All of them have the
 same origin line so you can pretty well see they were all posted by
 the same guy. I'm not sure where he hangs out, or what his *real*
 node number is, but I'm certain somebody out there knows.  I'm not
 sure he can be stopped either, as he is one of those who keeps
 looking for un-secure nodes to dump mail on.  He is mostly a
 prankster and an irritant.
