About that racist Milo Troll: FWIW
From Milorad Buggeroff Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2000 20:30:19 GMT Subject: Zdravo Drug Tito!! Hello from Bloomington, Indiana. My name is really Mark Nuckols, but I have some fun sometimes getting newpapers here to print letters from "Milorad," usually about horseburger or something equally silly.

(and just to clarify to those unaware xyz/milorad is almost certainly one Mark Nuckols, or someone pretending to be him, whose most notable contributions to society are hufu and a near religious devotion to trolling...he even trolls the reviews on Amazon! SteveB I liked your theory but I think mine is more accurate. And I know I shouldn't feed the troll, but come on this guy is hilarious.)

Hufu was touted as "the healthy human flesh alternative" for "cannibals who want to quit", as well as a product for anthropology students studying cannibalism. According to its website, hufu is also "a great convenience food for cannibals. No more Friday night hunting raids! Stay home and enjoy the good healthy taste of hufu."
Mark Nuckols (founder and CEO of Hufu, LLC)—then a student at Tuck School of Business—claimed that the concept of Hufu occurred to him when he ate a tofurkey sandwich while reading "Good To Eat: Riddles of Food and Culture", a book on cannibalism by anthropologist Marvin Harris. [1]

You sure you have the right Mark Nuckols? This one sounds like the background is closer to the troll in here:

That Mark Nuckols has no publications listed on his faculty web page. Too busy trolling to write anything, I guess.

Christopher, is something wrong within your third blockquote? The links therein come up as linked to tpm and don't go anywhere.
So Milo is from Bloomington. IU has a fab Slavic/Middle East lang. dept.
I always guessed he was not stupid. This confirms my suspicions about another troll that comes through here.
I think his taste in Anthropology is excremental. Harris is just a jump from Diamond. I know that generally intelligent people go nuts about both, but Melanesianists don't much care for either.
Thanks for the info.

Excuse my careless HTML. Those links were to other Wikipedia articles.

I must add that Liberal_Elite's find above does fit the profile of our troll considerably better than the Hufu gentleman. I honestly must admit to egg on my face here. Your IU Slavish Studies Dept. observation also confirms Liberal_Elite's find.

In addition to Indiana, he attended Tuck for his MBA and has family ties to UVA. What did he say this time?

What kind of "family ties" does he have to UVA?
Apparently, he appears on TPM threads as Milo or Mila or Milorad and spews vile racist stuff.
