Someone never read the help desk rules

A while back, I wrote an entry called Help Desk Rules largely out of frustration with folks who have nothing to do with me their entire lives, but then make a beeline for me to help them when they've got a technology problem or question. I thought it was a pretty funny piece of writing, and it's become something of a fan favorite around here. I'm guessing the person who sent me the following message never read it. Here's what he wrote, in its entirety:

I didn't answer this, and have no intention of doing so. I'm well aware of the fact that it would have taken me fewer keypresses to actually answer the question than to write this blog entry. But that wouldn't have been as much fun. Sometimes, you just have to raise your voice a little in the hope that someone out there is listening.

I'm on the fence re. whether or not I send the link to this entry back to the person who sent it. What do you think?
