Hello. I am posting from Japan, and using computers
with the programs which support the `kermit' protocol
and Japanese Language.

We kermit users in Japan have the newsgroup named fj.kermit
which looks like this newsgroup in Japan. `fj' means `From
Japan', so many articles are written by Japanese language
(a Japanese font needs two or more bytes of code) that you
can read them with some software which can disp Japanese fonts.

About a month ago, some guys started to post silly messages
to this newsgroup. We thought that they were mistaking this for
the Kermit in the Sesami Street at first, so write them that.
But they were not. They have been posting more and more silly
and/or sexcial messages, laughing at us because our articles
are written by Japanese which they can't read and understand.
They ignoring our cautions. We Japanese kermit users are lost
in thought. Please somebody stop their act. Do you know what
we shall do? Thanks.

The guys's e-mail adress are

     Magnolia Thunderpussy <[e-mail]>
     Jesus Christ <[e-mail]>
