Look for the alt.fan.tom-servo FQA (frequently questioned answers)
on that froup (it can be found, in 7 parts, on Deja News as well.)
He's dealt with a bit more seriously than anything else in that

The current user of the handle "TomServo@ix.netcom.com" does not
appear to be the same "Mad Newgrouper" of yesteryear.
