I'm not quite sure this makes sense. Am I allowed to react in different
ways according to the severity and duration of Diane's obnoxiousness
(well, allowed or not, I'm going to).

Someone thought it worth reporting that they felt immense relief ---
"after weeks of suffering, the relief is enormous" --- when Diane
left after the BASTard Operator From Hell threads. Well, since I'd
K/Fed Diane, and each of the threads like weeds as they sprung up, I
didn't much notice Diane had gone until a while after the threads
ceased. Killfiles are, after all, a sort of "cooling off period"
in which you hope someone will become less obnoxious if you
stay out of each others hair for a while.

The next lot of tantrums, while refusing to read anything in her name,
I urged averone else to K/F and occasionally responded to people
quoting her crap with that same request.

Now I'm not so sure. I think she needs to be responded to.

Sorry to bang on about my rationale for doing things--which
is less interesting than the issues & arguments themselves--
but that seems to be what your post wanted explained in public.

You mean, say, Lisa MacPherson is half alive and half dead (sorta
like Shroedinger's cat?). Or killing her by medical neglect was
part good part bad? Hmm. Maybe some things ARE black and white
after all....
