Peter Wieck is a stalker. He can't help himself.

Google reports that "Peter Wieck" sent 293 posts about
Mr Jute since Mr Jute last paid even momentary attention to "Worthless

Mr Jute's silence has about it the loud ring of eloquent contempt.

What Mr. McCoy was too fearful to state in its own.

For the record, Mr. McCoy is not worth "stalking". The analogy that
comes to mind is when the kitten chases paper-balls each evening before
bedtime. I throw the ball, the kitten bats it about, then he brings it
back and drops it in my hand. Mr. McCoy is that paper ball... only far
less savory. Tossing it about gives amusement to the kitten and to me.

Mr. "Gray" as you style yourself... point out one single factual error
in any statement I have made of either your motivating extremity, or of
Mr. Middius.

Unlike McCoy and/or Middius, I am not given to lies or elaborate
fantasies created to support my status, or to attack others. The truth
is more than sufficent. And much more fun.

Oh my word Mr Peter! How can you possibly accuse Gray Glasser of being one
of Duck Boy's [1] sockies? Anyone who looks in the archives can find plenty
of evidence for Gray's independent existence.

Like this post from for instance

"I shared an apartment with him for two years over thirty years ago. I
thought I would share in the girls of a fellow who published poetry
*and* was on a jock fellowship. I was very disappointed. The girls were
in the library, doing Andre's research while he played polo in South
America and I was in the Dean's office explaining why Andre shouldn't
be expelled for being an "invisible A grade scholar". It rubbed the
establishment that Andre would arrive in the early hours, write a fast
paper, get the top mark, tell les girls what to research next and be
off to race power boats or cars. Andre was absolutely charming when you
could pin him down but his attention span for inessentials is ten
seconds. I am surprised that he has remained interested in electronics
for fifteen years.
I haven't seen him since he let his place in Manhattan go but I return
to his netsites and his articles like everyone else with a hi-fi. I
also build his amps when he publishes designs. I built up that list of
his his hi-fi just studying published photographs and his postings on
the net.

quality problems with Chinese tubes. If *you* have doubts about Chinese
tube quality, you have the remedy in your own hands: don't buy Chinese
when you can pay ten times the price for NOS American tubes. Just don't
come whine about it on RAT because someone is sure to point out that
you could have had a perfectly reliable Chinese tube for a tenth of the
money.

Hang on! What went wrong? That was a post from Gray Glasser's email account
only it's written in Duck Boy's [1] style and signed by Duck Boy [1]
himself. But Gray says that he hasn't seen Duck Boy [1] since he let his
Manhattan pad go. Must be some bug in the archive. Unless.........?

Ever see that fictionalised but nicely done Oscar winner "A Beautiful
Mind"? In the story, Nobel prize winning mathematician John Nash (Russ
Crowe) has a university room mate named Charles (Paul Bettany) who turns out
to exist entirely within Nash's head.

But that's just some screenwriter's fantasy that doesn't occur in real life.
Besides, when a person is genuinely deluded, his imaginary friends don't
post on Usenet.

I'm at a loss to explain it. [2]



Hypertension

[1] "I made Jutey-Fruity switch to attack-dog mode. Terrifying. Like being
nibbled to death by a duck."

[2] Duck Boy may explain it as a temporary failure of his email proxy so
Gray posted his mail as a favour to him That was the explanation given once
before when a Duck Boy post emanated from another username and email
account.

Other possibilities a

Duckboy will maintain a guilty silence and hope that I go away.

Duckboy will make some unsavory remarks about "fartcatching" and express the
even more unsavory hope that I might have a crush on him. (shudder)

Good golly, no. The answer is in your headline: "Worthless Wiecky"...
Contempt requires volition, evaluation and an allocation of energy.
After I decided Worthless was beneath contempt and utterly harmless, I
simply told my newsreader to stop noticing him. He's a nothing out
there in the void, his existence empty until we recognize him.

Gray

I had my first stalker when I was 13 and published a couple of volumes
of poetry. She was a lot more attractive than Worthless Wiecky. I hope
that isn't an inevitable progression!

Ignore the little nobody. He'll shrivel and dry out from our lack of
attention, then his husk will blow away in the wind of change. No one
will remember his name.

Andrew Jute McCoy dithered:

Now we have the motivator writing to its extremities.

There is medication for that, Mr. McCoy... if you choose to avail
yourself of it.

You're probably right about Worthless Wiecky, any response will just
feed his craving for recognition. I dropped a dime on Peter Wieck and
discovered that he is "A jumped-up janitor who speaks presumtuously to
people. He's useless, given the job out of charity. His natural level
is holding the elevator door for the departmental cat." Like you say,
harmless, beneath contempt, not worth any effort.

That gave me a lift. Bless you.

Yet, you not only bring back a sock-puppet for the process, you also
engage it in conversation. How sad.

Again, show me one inaccuracy in any of my postings with reference to
you. The truth is sufficient for my fun. Clearly not for yours.

LOL. Worthless Wiecky, janitor and catwalker! I can just see the
haughty cat, tail tall, glide serenely across the lobby as the witless
Wiecky holds the door for it while inside the elevator his employer
fidgets at the delay! No wonder the wretched little man Wieck puts on
such presumptuous airs on the Net if he ranks lower in his job than the
departmental mouser!

My own cat sits on the tan leather sofa beside my desk, being told her
bedtime story, which today ends, "And one day you too will be
Plutocratic Cat, rich enough to have your own Worthless Wiecky to hold
doors for you. I do hope you will still have the humility to nod
gracious thanks to Worthless even for this menial service." My cat nods
agreeably but then she's a very well-mannered cat -- and I'm holding a
dish of raw fish and another of yoghurt...

Interesting that your informant also called Worthless Wiecky "Useless".
That's what John Byrns first labelled Wieck, pretty presciently it now
seems.

Macavity (1) strikes again! I wonder how many elevator doors there are
for Worthless Wiecky, janitor and cat accomplice, to hold...

And when you reach the scene of crime - Macavity's not there!
You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air -
But I tell you once and once again, Macavity's not there!
His sidekick Worthless Wiecky -- The Janitor --
wickedly held the elevator door,
so Macavity's escaped again, so there!

Andrew Jute McCoy blathered at great effort:

More tripe.

a) Nobody held doors for Raider. It is so clear that you do not
understand cats. By the holding of the door, they would choose not to
use it. However, Raider retired from Penn approximately 3 years ago at
19, and is now living in comfortable circumstances in New Jersey, still
in good health. And in the interim, I have practiced my trade in Saudi
Arabia and now practice it in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US.
b) Being a "trumped up janitor" (not a half-bad descriptive, as it
happens) has given me and mine a very good living, with enough left
over that our future is well-assured. A far cry from your little
Bed-Sit in Cork? I guess vanity-published bad fiction doesn't pay much?
And if your How-To book is anything like your How-To amplifier design,
well... Oh, I have been meaning to ask... you 'gave up motoring'...
this due to too may DUI convictions? Could not afford gas at $8/gallon?
Could not afford a vehicle in the first place?

Facts, McCoy, Facts... try 'em if you got 'em. I can have you
dithering, engaging in schizophrenic conversation and spinning like an
Iranian centrifuge with a few actual facts. Yeah, it is a little like
pulling wings off flies, but I may do so in the absolute assurance that
no living creature will actually be damaged by the exercise.

One last question, now that you have achieved your 61st birthday....
Would it be appropriate for you to allude to recent accomplishments
rather than dubious references to youthful fantasies 40+ years past?
