Roger ,, isn't it the take-offs and landing when flying? Same for me when
sailing .. the docking and leaving docking.

It is the landings as the airplane will tend to fly itself unless you are in
some heavy iron or a helicopter. On the landing bit, any one that you walk
away from is a good one and one where you can use the airplane again is an
excellent one.

Hi Roger:

I'll dig up th ebook where I lifted, or I mean quoted, the statment.
If I rememember right it was not a primary source, rather it was from
an author who used the quote from anohter souce. I have a few things
to do today and 2marow but should be able to cite the source soon.

Gezzz, this thread really turned into a mud slingging ****ing match
fast. Talk to you later. Hope your day goes well. Winter broke
yesterday in the PNW. Saw 65 F . Daffodills everywhere.

Bob

Wait ,, did I see something?


Sea-Fever

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.



I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.



I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like
a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

Nowadays we all cut and paste things we find on the web as
explanations. Seldom, unless it is portrayed as one's own writing,
which this clearly did not, does anyone give the source.

This is absolutely wrong. If you lift text, you must says its lifted,
and should provide the source. Always.


Yes, perhaps each item should give credit, but does this particular
situation really warrant such emotion.

Perhaps the emotion is not warranted, but the sentiment is valid.

Besides NE sailboat is a
frequent poster. He never claims to be an expert.

Nor would he ever be confused for one. That might explain why he was
caught in 7 minutes.

I really do think that you are going overboard here. I have been an IT
professional for over 30 years, much of that in management for
Government and companies such as Vodafone and IBM. I have written, do
write and have received many reports, recommendations with supporting
details etc. These days, virtually nobody using the web to collate
information gives the references unless it is a specific and unique
document supporting the recommendation.

When a Powerpoint presentation is composed and presented - how often
do you see any reference to the "facts" or the source? - Virtually
never. In this modern world, one is not expected to be expert on
everything. In fact it is undesirable in many ways because there is
then a tendency amongst individuals to believe that they are THE
subject matter experts and then learn new developments less than those
who are aspiring in their expertise. Frankly, when I ask for a report
or recommendation, I expect the person to research the facts and
present those that are valid, substantiated and pertinent in a concise
and coherent manner. I couldn't care less where it all came from. I
expect the person to do their best.

I do however object to anyone claiming to be the originator of
documents that are the product of somebody else. I want to kill when
it happens to me.

This is not the situation in this case. No sensible web user who has
posted as frequently as the poster referred to would assume that
others do not know how to search.

Why not give people the benefit of the doubt? The world would be a so
much nicer place and so would this group without all the pathetic
"bitchiness" that is posted. If a person is a plagariser or guilty of
some other heinous offence, then sooner or later they will be caught
out and lose credibility.

Shrub lied constantly about "weapons of mass destruction" and
"international terrorism support" and yet the American people still
re-elected him. Every press conference I see on TV has him still
chanting the lie. Why don't you all write to him direct or protest in
front of the Whitehouse if you feel so virtuous?
