He might be referring to Doppleganger Scotty, your Canadian namesake.



Nah, it was the Connecticut Scotty. It's one of his email addresses.

My guess is it was a reply intended for rec.boats but he sent it to
John's email by mistake. Happens. I've done it many times.



Well, that's enough to bring on panic!

I finally got around to putting another stick of RAM in my iMac. There's
no question that a non-liberal arts fellow like you can do the same, and
in your sleep.

here, I
admit it... period...


Are you giving permission to have the email message in question put
into the public domain?
,


Sure, and I did go back and check and I did write it. Somehow went
straight to John instead of the group. He was acting like an asshole, so
I called him, "asshole"...



You sent him an email calling him an asshole?

Ahh, the inhabitants of rec.boats.

So you now have what, 16Gb instead of 8Gb?

Can you detect any difference in how it runs? I suppose it really
depends on how demanding the application is. So far I have not
experienced any problems or obvious slow-downs with 8Gb.

Right, 16GB. I was going to sell the 8GB it came with, and had a buyer,
but then I changed my mind. For me, it probably will only make a
difference in running several apps at once, such as a big file on WORD
along with photo processing. For you, it might make a difference when
editing sound files or videos. I plan to set up around 4GB as an
invokable RAM disk.

How many 'thousands' of years are you talking? and which civilizations? I know the early Egyptians(Pyramid builders) as well as the early Jews (Cabala studiers) didn't think that way..

Concerning this being a religious 'theory' that's been taught for 'thousands' of years? I really think you're projecting again....

But if that's really what and how you wish to believe, then more power to you...

Oh, well, then I guess you are discounting the trials and tribulations
of one Galileo Galilei. He was an advocate of heliocentrism (Earth and
planets revolve around a relatively stationary Sun at the center of the
Solar System) and was investigated for it by an inquisition, which said
he was wrong and heliocentrism was contrary to the bible. He was
forbidden from lecturing that the earth was *not* the center of the
solar system, and later he was forced under pain of death to recant his
teachings. He spent the rest of his life under house arrest.

So, if you go from your starting point (ancient Egyptians) to Galileo,
that would be thousands of years, and that there are still people who
believe the earth is still the center of the solar system is without
question a testament to the thousands of years of religious misinformation.

After he died, Galileo, one of the greatest thinkers of mankind, was
denied an honored resting place because of religious ignorance.

Ahh, the inhabitants of rec.boats.



It doesn't take a PhD in Psychiatry or Psychotherapy to recognized that
sometimes Scott seems to be a prime candidate for anger management
therapy with maybe a couple of sessions focused on paranoia. He seems
to think everyone is out to get him and he has to fight back and call
you an asshole or something.

I just came back from the store. Most of the back roads are still snow
and ice covered (towns are running out of sand and salt) with huge
mounds of snow piled up by the plows at intersections that make it
difficult to see if there is on-coming traffic. At one of these I
inched my way forward, planning to turn right (no counter steering
required). The coast was clear, so I made the turn and immediately saw
a small car in the mirror approaching from a distant corner and coming
up *fast* behind me. It was going *way* too fast for conditions. The
driver was apparently oblivious to the fact that if the brakes where
jammed on the car would probably skid off the road and into a snow bank.

Then, still looking in the side mirror, I realized it was a young girl
driving, probably 19-20 years old. She was mouthing something off that
obviously I couldn't hear and giving me the one finger salute.

All you can do is chuckle and hope maybe she *would* find herself buried
in a snow bank somewhere.

It also flashed through my mind (as Mrs.E. and I approach our 44th
anniversary in a few days) of how fortunate I am to have grown up in an
era when women didn't act like young, punk guys.

Then there are some who believe *they* are the center of the universe.
