He joined the list on about September 29, 2004.  He
posted nine times from then until February 2007, when he expressed interest
in the Saskatoon conference.  His interest seems to be in Cherokee
and eastern Siouan, probably from a personal heritage point of view.  He
asked questions about several obscure words and ethnonyms he was aware
of, language uncertain, which may have gone unanswered.  His earlier
postings were generally polite.  I don't think he means to be abusive;
he is simply frustrated with technology and wound up yelling at the list
because he couldn't figure out how to get off.
