well, there are several kinds of slashdot trolls:
(1) - the really stupid one, who doesn't bother trying to obfuscate anything
(2) - the timid one who is afraid to make it a bit more obvious
(3) - the smart kid who is unchallenged by a stupid site like slashdot
pick the category you like. one hint: you most certainly don't belonmg to the third category.
