And worse than that, has bragged about it. Even I, a fairly naive content 
editor, would have realised that that is anathema to the purpose of 
Wikipedia.. But the difference is that I am an honest contributor, and 
banned by ArbCom, and he is a dishonest contributor, and banned by the 
community. You go figure  the difference.

PS, Greg, please feel free to sue; I have plenty of time to defend since I 
can no longer deal with vandalism on WP these days. I'll even let you know 
the name of my attorneys for service. Make my day.
