At least on USENET the nuts can be filtered out (i.e., killfiled) in the newsreading software, unlike here, where one in particular seems to be welcomed by the management. Perhaps this person is tolerated as a form of in-house-village-idiot-type entertainment (i.e., a sort of caged animal that everyone likes to poke at), but, hey, that's just my opinion ;-)
