He apparently can't search the archives to find out because he keeps  
asking me to do it for him. "Did you search for this? How about  
searching for this?"

The disturbing part is that he simply has nothing better to do. He's  
perfectly FINE with the listing data he's getting and keeps screaming

not. Like no one has ever thought of that before and discussed it in  
a thread of about 1,000 messages months ago.
