That's computer users all over the place, keep doing the same thing,
over and over, hoping for a different result.

And how long since you last used it?  ;-)  (Suspecting a bit of a joke
in your assertion.)

I can't say that I've had many, though I have seen the computer crap-out
in a myriad of ways over the years.  One trick Microsoft employed to put
an end of the blue screens of death complaints was to stop showing it,
and just have the computer reboot.  The bugs are still there.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the
public lists.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
