Re: Great deal, great product.



> I'm responding to your posts...

Yet you made it a point to state repeatedly that you're not
interested in what I have to say.  :^)

> We are corresponding if you haven't noticed...

"Corresponding?"  Heh.  You are just an Olson sock puppet and
yes, I noticed.

Some of them are filtered.  Others (the ones who behave like
adults) get responses in kind.

Nah.  I'm not that self-important.  But the vast majority of your
posts are addressed to me.  For someone who claims to be totally
disinterested, that seems a little strange, don't you think?

Oh, you mean a newsgroup.  That's a normal word and isn't usually
capitalized.  Point me to the "Usenet Instruction Manual" that
clearly identifies this supposed error...

You might start here.  http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/faq/part1/
Rather than state, "Thou shalt not say 'Group,'" the document
refers to "newsgroups" numerous times.  The implication is that
the accepted usage is "newsgroup".  If you hang around USENET
(which can isn't always capitalized since it's not an acronym)
you'll learn these things, not that it makes any difference.

You consider that fact that I post information about DIY an
ethics violation.  Or perhaps the problem you have is that I
sometimes speak up against some of the less-than-savory trade
practices that are all too common in this industry.  Hmm.

I said nothing about netiquette and I couldn't care less whether
you like what I have to say.  I'm not here for your benefit and
you are clearly not interested in mine.

You are indeed an Olson sock puppet.

I leave the bald pate open to the sun, keeps the old brain warm.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large
