Actually, Scott Paterson (the brainz behind escribe, it appears) has been
running the SAAB mailing list for probably 10 years now, so he's no
internet newbie. Clueless, yes, newbie, no.

Of course, one of the admins for the BMW motorcycles list is a lawyer. An
internet savvy lawyer (he's currently webmaster for a large, make that
LARGE site). Heh heh heh. I suspect Scott is glad he wore his brown
underwear the other day.
