I should point out that the complaint wasn't sent to me directly, but somebody I know saw it on a usenet group and forwarded it, asking whether the Tor community was aware of it.
So as Roger points out, it's not a "routine" complaint, and in fact the complainant appears to know about and understand Tor. The complaint is in fact against Google so I think ignoring it would be the right course of action in this case as I don't want to be caught up in some anti-Google argument, regardless of what the detail of the issues are.

I'd explain what Tor, why it is important to have Tor around and how the complainer could block traffic from Tor exit nodes if really needed.
In this particular case, I assume the complainer is "some dude upset about what's getting posted via google groups". So the usual answer (https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse#Bans) doesn't apply to him, since he can't make any decisions on behalf of Google.
I can see how he'd be frustrated, and how he'd resort to mailing Tor exit relay operators one-by-one in hopes of solving his problem.
But I can also see how it won't solve his problem.
