Lou is being humorous in his reference to Olaechea, a wild man and an
idiot, who would never be allowed to post on any list Lou moderated. I
presume this joke is Lou's way of gracefully retreating.

When Olaechea first appeared on the old Spoons marxism list I was
convinced that he was a hoax, an invention by some clumsy satirist
trying to mock Maoism. But apparently he was for real!
