FWIW, I happen to have downloaded the entire FAQ from his site a couple of 
months ago and indeed still have a copy and even backups!  However, if he 
really owns the copyright on those FAQs, then I guess I can't post it.  
However, my understanding is that he took existing FAQs from the previous FAQ 
holder and added his own modifications.  Still, his modifications are his own. 
 Like someone else mentioned, we could go back to the pre-Mates FAQs and start 
from there.  However, it is comforting to know that they are preserved for 
posterity's sake.

In my ever humble opinion, my own little insigificant take on this whole 
fiasco, I must say the line about him wiping everything from his HD and 
backups really told me he flipped his lid.  I don't know the precise events 
that led up to it (as someone else said, there is always one little thing 
that presses the final trigger to send someone over the edge), but from 
reading his posts the last three to four years he wouldn't say that unless he 
really did it. Wild. Bizarre. 

He should marry, settle down, have kids and mellow out.  That or just roll up 
a big fat hooter (just kidding! =).  To have accomplished such a pyrrhic 
victory is little comfort indeed.  To immolate or sacrifice oneself's for 
country or God is quite understandable.  But for a hobby, a passion, a 
harmless pasttime?  Perspective is required here.

That is a sign of a fanatical mind gone bad and it really is a shame indeed. 
 Obviously, he will regret it if he lives long enough.  My boy done wigged out 
as Pogo would have put it...
