[edit] Emails from User:Plautus satire

Emails from Plautus Satire are in chronological order. Some of his lines are incomplete; this is because he typed them too long and they got cut off by his mail server. I originally thought that username blocks expire like IP blocks; but I discovered this was not true and decided to keep my original intention by unblocking him after 24 hours. I notified him of this about three emails down but didn't keep a copy. silsor 00:56, Feb 18, 2004 (UTC)

Here is the edit where you deleted Reddi's comment from Talk:Albert
Einstein:

+id=2383243

That's fine, but some people don't take too kindly to people who are
coming under legitimate criticism simply trying to erase the complaints
against them without responding.

I think this is why you seem to be unable to rationally discuss issues
with other users.  I have been checking the page histories, and especially
the talk page histories.  You are unable to hold a conversation without
loading up with insults, rhetoric and hatred.  Don't expect to be
unblocked if you can't discuss issues in a reasonable manner.

As to trolling under another IP, I made a mistake.  You actually trolled
under the same IP.  Here is the relevant edit:

Anonymous users have the same privileges as logged in users.  Note that
you yourself didn't have a user name until a while after you began
editing.  I don't really care which one of you is right and I haven't
followed the technical side of any of your debates.  In fact, I
protected one of the pages you were engaged in an edit war on on *your*
side of the story.  The issue of your blocking is your ability to
participate in an open project, not the quality of your knowledge.

His criticisms were not legitimate, he claimed I was plagiarizing (obviously a
+kneejerk reaction to my claim against Einstein) by describing a book in a
+similar fashion to a review of the same book. Wow, two summaries of the same
+book using similar words. How astonishing and diabolical. Give me a break. I

Wow, I respond this way to an unjust IP ban and you cite it as evidence that I
+should have been banned. Give me a break, that's entrapment. Give me one good
+reason (other than sucking up) that I should be respectful to you after you
+just banned me for no good reason? I had plenty of people insulting me in a
+backhanded fashion, why aren't they banned? Because nobody complained. Get it,
+numbnuts? I'm not going to suck your fucking ass to get unbanned, you're

+your powers are supposed to be used and you'll see you overstepped your
+authority, you asshole. Don't get high and mighty with me you prick, you're
+just a man like me. I'm not even going to respond to any more of your
+foolishness. I've shown you that you far-exceeded your responsibility and
+authority, now you fucking make it right, be a goddamned man and make it right
+because I refuse to whine to somebody else to get it fixed, YOU FIX IT.

Read Roadrunner's recent editions of the black hole page, jackass. It confirms
+some of the changes I tried to make, one being that black holes are NOT the
+most likely candidate for gamma ray bursters. Does that mean the anonymous user
+is a fucking troll? Are you going to ban him and reinstate me? You stupid

It's been 24 hours so I'm unblocking you like I said.  If you feel I have
abused my privileges, take it up with the proper channels on Wikipedia or

This document refutes that idiot Roadrunner's claims that plasma physics does
+not offer a completely reasonable prediction of gamma ray bursts in space:
+http://www.cwi.nl/publications/annual-reports/2001/ORA/HTML/MAS-2.html

"October 1, a start was made with the project Computational Magnetohydrodynamics
+in Special Relativity, in the framework of the larger NWO-project Rapid Changes
+in Complex Flows. As a first step to the final goal of developing a numerical
+method for solving the special relativistic magneto-hydrodynamic (SRMHD)
+equations, Van Odyck started implementing a numerical method to solve a
+one-dimensional special relativistic hydrodynamics problem. A spherical gas
+explosion is used as a model problem. This problem has been proposed by the
+Astro-Plasma physics group at the University of Utrecht and it can be seen as a
+simplification of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB). These are not yet fully understood
+high-energy explosions in the universe. It is hoped that eventually an SRMHD
+calculation can shed light on this topic."

Unban me, you ignorant son of a bitch. Admit you made a mistake, you fool.

And look at this, you dumb mother fucker:
+http://www.ketek.net/layer2/publications/dictionary.htm

"X-ray astronomy is the study of x-rays that originate above the atmosphere. As
+with cosmic rays, they are both solar and galactic in origin. Bremsstrahlung
+and synchrotron radiation emitted by cosmic-ray electrons are thought to be
+among the physical processes responsible for cosmic x-rays. As they penetrate
+the atmosphere only to a limited extend, it is necessary to detect them from
+balloons, rockets, or satellites. When energies are observed which are higher
+than those normally associated with x-rays, these photons are often called
+gamma rays regardless of their origin."

Synchtron radiation is emitted from particle accelerators on Earth, and from
+naturally-occuring particle accelerators in space. Black hole mythology does
+not predict this radiation, but black hole mythology HAS been modified in an ad
+hoc fashion to account for the observations that conflict with it. Synchotron
+radiation is often gamma rays in particle accelerators on Earth, when they are
+dealing with very high energies. These energies are piddling in comparison to
+the tremendous currents coursing through galactic plasmas. All this PREDICTED
+BY PLASMA PHYSICISTS. AND IT FALLS IN LINE WITH EVIDENCE BASED ON PREDICTION
+NOT ON AD HOC EXCEPTIONS. BLACK HOLE MYTHOLOGY IS REWRITTEN WITH EACH NEW
+OBSERVATION, IT IS MORE EXCEPTION THAN RULE. BLACK HOLE IS DEAD, FOOL. UNBAN
+ME.

By the way, I looked at that edit, yes it was mine. I agree the tone was very
+flippant, but the fact remains he was and is still the only astronaut to ever
+order kosher food on a space shuttle. Why is it valid to mention he was the
+first Israeli, but not the first to order kosher food? Seems like kneejerk
+reaction to the implication that Ilan Ramon was a practicing jew. So what? As
+for my characterization of him as a "mushy-headed tourist," he WAS on the space
+shuttle. If he didn't want to make sacrifices he shouldn't have signed on.
+Special dietary requirements impose more costs on the missions and probably in
+the case of kosher food required lots of either time to prepare or space to
+store. How long was that mission delayed? Why? Because an Israeli on board made
+it an irresistable target for terrorists? I could go on and on about my
+SPECULATIONS, but instead I reported a fact in that post. The only valid
+argument against that edit was the tone, the facts were valid, as valid as the

I only started posting recently as you well know. Once I realized I could
+register and get "credit" for my posts I did so immediately. I'm sorry if I
+don't have the knack for dry, encyclopaedic writing but I am getting better at
+it. Don't ruin my contributions because a few whiners pissed and moaned in your
+ear that I'm trying to bully them. And by the way, who the fuck are you to
+decide what goes into a talk page? Particularly a user talk page? God damn it
+burns my ass I have to even speak in a civil manner to you, because I strongly
+suspect you are just an ignorant child who has been given the equivelent on
+wikipedia of a loaded gun.

Why am I still blocked when Corax is no longer blocked? (see the first entry on
+my User page.) Also I am not listed on the Blocked User page. Either block
+Corax or unblock me AT ONCE or I will report you for misuse of your powers.
