Save your keystrokes. Josepi is just another of gymmy bob's nyms. A
couple of the others he's used in the energy groups are john p bengi
and solar flare. No matter the newsgroup, he *always* ends up arguing
against proper posting form. Here are a few examples, see for
yourself.

I can't remember which nym it was, but when he started using it here
he bottom posted as part of his disguise. <snorf> But his quackery
gave him away, and as soon as he was outed he went right back to top
posting again, and insisting that it's the standard, despite what by
now must be hundreds of posts explaining the situation to him.
Clearly, he'll never learn.

WTF kind of drugs are you on this time?
Not a bad troll except I see the asshole reputation you have here and
"click". Too obvious.
Go back to sleep, genius.

He's using Outhouse Excuse. That ain't no browser.
