  1. To quote from the college website:

    John Wheatley College is Scotland’s friendliest College and we’re
    justifiably proud of the achievements of our students.

    But they can't teach their stdents how to use USENET.

    There is a general email addy on the site. Does anybody have an addy
    for somebody a little higher up?

    Generally I've found emailing the postmaster of colleges gets a reply.
    Also, this college is part of Glasgow's uni - so you could prob get hold of
    someone at http://www.gla.ac.uk/ if you could be bothered!

    What I can't understand is why the college lecturer (hah!) doesn't set
    them to send posts to alt.test, and then tell them to reply to each
    other.

    Or is that too shpxvat obvious?

    question vaguely on topic.. Honesty!

    Unfortunately those idiot trolls cannot be far behind.

    I would have thought that principal@any-college-you-like ought to be
    successfully redirected. You'll probably have less luck with
    shpxjvg.ghgbe@same-place however unless the mail system admin has a
    particularly cruel streak.

    I have two theories:
    a) Some lecturer had a really bad time hereabouts at some point in the past
    b) College *still* isn't expensive enough

    "And today, we're going to put our theory on written communication skills
    into practice. I want you all to write to the editor of The Times asking
    him to write back..."
