2002 Toyota Camry Radio 86120- AA040
The above radio went black but continued to play. When we tried to
change the sound level or the station, the controls didn't work. I checked both fuses and they were ok. The radio turns on with the ignition and plays on that one channel. Is this fixable at a reasonable rate, or is it better to install a used or after market radio? |

IT'S BETTER TO TURN THE RADIO OFF AND LISTEN TO CATS SCREAM WHILE THEY'RE BEING RAN OVER. |

It's not altogether surprising that the name belongs to a child psychologist at a counseling service in Santee, California, not far from San Diego. Here's the best listing I have: CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST, WEISSBEIN, KENDRA CP, 8760 CUYAMACA ST 211, SANTEE, 92071, 6195969892 I assume that this last number is a telephone number. If anyone lives nearby, you might put in a telephone call and tell Dr Weissbein that one of her patients has been making her name famous over the Internet, in this group, a home repair group, and alt.pets. I've often wondered how dangerous it is to be a mental health professional and have to deal with unstable people on a daily basis. I suppose that incidents like this are the least of it. M Kinsler |

He/she is/was just a troll, and ignoring is the best response. |

He/she is/was just a troll, and ignoring is the best response. I understand that, and it is indeed true that the best policy for peace within any discussion group is to ignore such posts. I will do so in the future. But this kid seemed a bit more persistent than many, and I believe that it is possible to disguise the place of origin of posts (a couple of months ago an e-mailed bomb threat to our local high school from a local resident was funneled through a disguised site in Great Britain.) Kendra Weissbein is not a common name (hooray) and the fact that there's a child psychologist by that name and a young person who is using that name to send crazy posts about injured animals seems a bit like a cry for help. Three or four posts from an unattended account from someone who wants to pull a prank is one thing, but this has gone on for quite a while, and on three separate Usenet groups. It's difficult to know what to do, but I felt that in this case it would be worth one more response to let the poster know that someone was paying enough attention to her posts (dunno why I think it's female, but I do) to undertake at least a token investigation.
