[TriLUG] decorum

[Craig Taylor]

I've wanted to voice several comments through this series of (mostly)
ridiculous threads - to summarize, "DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS" - they'll
eventually go away on their own. The fewer responses, replies, innuendo,
comments etc  - the better for cessation of the thread.

These types of threads have started before - they'll start again - the best
practice is to ignore them.
