Why not run him off?  Talk about gratuitous noise, he's got nothing else.
 

Although I have him killfiled, I admit that some may find
his posts of interest; for them, "running him off" is the
opposite of polite discussion. Better to simply not see his
posts via killfile if possible, and ignore the ones
responding to him.

I had him killfiled before, after he revealed himself as a shameless liar with nothing interesting to say. However, when GoogleGroups carried out its purge a couple of weeks ago I cleaned out my killfile competely, thinking that many of the people in it were unlikely to trouble us again. On the whole that has worked well, but there are certainly people who need to be put back, and Ron Dean is clearly one of them. (JTEM was the first to go, after a brief moment of freedom.)
