- Having run into this dweeb before, I have found that the most effective and
- useful solution is to put the line
-
- /Masataka Ohta/h:j
-
- into your global kill file. It's really too bad, because he does have a few
- (not many, but a few) good things to say. He just says them in such a way as
- to generate lots of heat and almost no light, using ad hominem attacks (kind of
- "if I'm right, then you _must_ be completely full of shit, and of _course_ I'm
- right") and using emotionally loaded terms.
-
- By far the best solution is to simply ignore him. He will sulk for a while,
- and then will take his toys and go home.
