That kind of e-mail is news to me. I didn't think the pinheaded bigot spammers were smart enough to get at e-mail addies. I always thought you used a handle without your e-mail.
I'd just send it on to their ISP. Hate mail is a nasty thing.

jensmome: This is not the poster "CaptainKirk" that usually posts on this board. This is a TROLL wanna-be pretending to be the poster CaptainKirk because CaptainKirk put him in his place today (see the locked USPS boxes threads).
You'll notice this CaptaiinKirk (note the 2 i's) only has posted 1 post and signed up 6 minutes ago to cause trouble.

At first I thought I was dealing with, oh, someone in their 20s.
After the first set of juvenile posts, I revised that age downward to mid-teens.
Now I think I'm going to have to go with 12, max.
Yawn. Yet another pathetic "attack".
Fortunately, having 7 kids (and #8 on the horizon), I'm used to such sophomorism. I'm not sure exactly what they are trying to accomplish, but if their goal is to embarrass themselves thoroughly, and/or entice AW to track down their IP addy and take permanent steps, they are succeeding wonderfully.

And thanks to those who noticed the fake C-K and pointed that out.
If the fake C-K edited their posts and thinks they can hide that way, they are going to be soooo surprised to discover that AW keeps a record of all postings made. I suspect the moderators are going to seriously consider nuking our oh-so-brave (not!) poster.
Like me or hate me, there is only ONE real CaptainKirk. Accept no substitutes!

Twin:
That would be my evil twin, from episode #46, where are rare transporter accident switches us
Marty: thanks, although I suspect I may not have heard the last of the "mystery poster". Oh well. You may want to nuke the whole last priority mail thread, since it really was just an attack on me and does nothing to enhance AW's image as a fun, interesting place to discuss...
For that matter, this one too.
Back to working on financial aid forms for daughter #1. If only this truly were the 23rd century and money was no longer needed!
