You know something? The internet is full of sh1t. And people like to vent their frustration with their own lives by emailing manufacturers with what could be considered abuse.

I don't like it, and I don't think anybody at their place of workwould like to have that sort of behaviour thrust under their noses.

So, I decided simply to publish all the crap we get right here, starting with this mild one:

Hopefully when it becomes widely known you are posting these for everybody to ridicule,it will stop a lot of it.Some people are very sad and need to get lives,and you are quite right there is an awful lot of abuse on the net because of the anonymity.However these people need to know it is a very simple matter to get all sorts of personal information about them from an e mail header.

The internet (& a few forums) are like the girl in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's little poem -
'When she was good she was very very good, when she was bad she was horrid.'
It must be annoying, to say the least, receiving such crap.
As Phil says don't let em grind you down. Trolls are best ignored.

There are a lot of trolls and internet gangstas out there, but many more good people. I like the idea of "outing" the stupidest messages, and we could vote on which one is the tw#tt of the week/month? On second thoughts that is nearly as bad as sending the messages!

BTW has anyone else watched Richard Dawkins reading his 'fan mail' ?

It's a fair cop Ash. To be fair I did repent.
