I endorse Rob's opinion that Donald is a turkey who almost never 
writes anything of value.  Perhaps an appropriate action would be to 
accumulate a list of people who concur, to be periodically posted 
along with instructions on how his messages can be automatically 
filtered out by the email software of anyone who doesn't want to 
receive his messages.

I've had similar musings about whether I should take some action in 
the elections-reform (ER) maillist, since I have some power as its 
"list owner."  Since so many internet sites offer free maillists, 
Donald could easily set up his own maillist for anyone who wants to 
receive his posts.  I'd be willing to periodically post a message 
announcing the existence of his maillist, so new ER subscribers can 
find it.
