Dude - you have to watch that word "buffoon"

Here in New Zealand a shareholder for a middle-sized ISP called the CEO of 
Domainz (the approved domain name registry company) a buffoon in a usenet 
posting.  The resulting court action went on for 18 months, and ended up 
with the court saying (essentially) "but you are a buffoon"

Then again... its blatently obvious here...
