That was hit dead square with a 28 oz framing hammer..... well done

| Part of it you brought on yourself, because particular people you

| once case more wealthy, than your own web-print indicates you

| it. (I can say this, because I freely admit to being a poor,
| nondescript and lakebound Tadpole of limited experience).
|
| As a newsgroup, it's more an extended chat-room, with a lot
| happening, and a lot of people who know each other intimately (in
| a virtual sense). It also used to be the boating usenet's most
| erudite continuous virtual bar-room brawl, as a brief perusing of
| the archives will show. In a lot of ways, I'm quite happy to see
| a good brawl erupt again--it gives me lots of material to play or
| work with--but preferably with some variety in it, and the
| current stoush is starting to become embarrassing.
|
| Just remember one important thing: this is a virtual forum.
| People get judged on how they handle themselves within it, not on
| what they claim to be, or have, or have done. Some people are
| very easy to check the reality of. Me, for instance. Others are
| totally impossible to ferret out. Oz1 for instance. Some are
| real, some are fakers, some are confused, and some are
| glove-puppets worn by (in at least eight cases) a genius
| octopus. There are also some very, very clever and very very
| talented people lurking in the darker corners. But all there is
| to go by is _how_they_perform_in_this_forum_! Nothing else can be
| trusted to be real.

| My posts here, as much as you liked to bash them, where real. He had

| received a mysterious email about how funny it was from Jasson, as if I
| didn't already know how it was.
