[WikiEN-l] JarlaxleArtemis/Grawp

[Jay Litwyn]

I called verizon. Answer was a recording referring the case to 
security at verizon.net from which I hav received no response (AFAIK, 
postmaster@ serves the same purpose at any other ISP). I also called Jeremy 
Hanson's phone number at 562-431-7852. Yet another answering machine. I left 
a message explaining that I want to talk to Jeremy Hanson about wikipedia 
edits that violate editorial policy, plus my phone number and e-mail 
address. I have not verified that police action follows from our definition 
of vandalism (which probably doesn't need definition, because it is never as 
careful as graffiti). When I checked the state laws of Virginia, vandalism 
was about archaeology. "Don't wreck the art. Don't break or advertize on the 
stalactites". I would follow up with a call to police, and I did, and I had 
to retract my statement, because I could not back up what Fran Rogers was 
saying with *links* to what is stale data on checkuser pages. I will keep 
digging after my beer. While verizon's terms of service forbid "unwanted 
communication", I hav gotten no response from them via any channel, and I 
hav tried all of those listed on a whois search. You might want to list 
verizon in a LONG-TERM ABUSE case for not enforcing their TOS or AUP. Let me 
know exactly when or where that is.
