Indeed, Greggster, I said I didn't have the math chops to solve Riemann,

Here you go Harry. Not exact, but close enough for government work.

Harry is very proud of himself that he's discovered something called
the Riemann hypothesis also known as the Riemann conjecture. It's
not at all clear that he would understand the solution even if
delivered on a silver platter. It might be appropriate if we first
asked harry to describe the Riemann Zeta function in his own words:

But there seems to be 100 other things I can do, that baffle you.
The only people I have ever met with a similar lack of any mechanical
skills at all was a few doctors, mostly specialists.
They did have valuable skills though. You seem to lack any beyond
writing ad copy.






I'm not aware of anything you have said you can do that "baffles" me.

Your last example of home handyman tasks, checking or changing the
impeller on an outboard, was a skill I picked up at my dad's dealership
when I was maybe 10 years old.

If I need to check the weather, I can look out in the yard or check the
readouts on my little weather gauge, or I can click on the weather app
on my iphone.

I can play the 4357 "tunes" on my server anywhere in the house or yard
or, in fact, anywhere I can get 'net access.

If I need to replace my gas water heater, I know exactly which plumber
to call. Nothing baffling there.

I will admit your love affair with an obsolete Windows OS baffles me,
but not enough to raise my curiosity to the point where I will try to
install it on anything.

I don't really write much "ad copy" anymore, but I did recently research
and write a proposal that got an NGO in Kenya a substantial grant for a
village to village program to help fight HIV/AIDs and also promote the
use of condoms. Oh, and for no compensation, I researched and wrote the
documentation that helped a religiously affiliated residential school
for autistic kids get on the approved funding list of an out of state
county in order to help a friend with an autistic kid.

I'm sure you have some handyman skills I don't have and even don't care
to have. When my car needs service, I take it to the shop. No
"bafflement" there, eh?

More gibberish from Harry

If he really did access your computer in some way, it is quite
possible that a felony was committed.

It was just one of Harry's lame excuses for a joke ... or perhaps an
insult. I really don't care anymore.
It is clear he is around the bend.
Maybe the stress of all of those legal/fiancial problems is starting
to take a toll on him



Funny....you've jumped aboard W'hine's stinking ship. I'm not "around
the bend," I simply like to poke fun at stuffed shirts, and you, in
your
own way, are one. With too much starch.

I know you've been upset ever since I pointed out the lack of science
behind your determination of the cause of your outboard impeller's lack
of failure or failure or perhaps why the temps were creeping up, and it
is obvious you really *hate* to be questioned. Was it the thermostat?
Was it Chicken Little? Did passing cosmic rays do it?

I can't wait for you and the rest of the right-wingers here to solve
the
Riemann Hypothesis or, perhaps something a bit easier, the P versus NP
problem. No, of course I haven't, but I am aware of them and read an
article or two a year about the latest attempts, just for grins.

Should be easy for you non-liberal-arts boys to figure out, eh? Get
FlaJim to give you a hand and have PsychoScotty put it up on his
tree-cuttin' web page, "Zen and the Art of Tree-Cuttin' and
Mathematical
Puzzlements."


What the hell is *wrong* with you?




I've noticed you rarely comment on the never-ending insulting posts your
right-wing buddies make here. The few who aren't in my bozo bin engage
in that sort of behavior here almost every day, and the few from the
bozo binners who creep in because of being quoted indicate they are here
for little more.

Gregg is ****ed because I called him out for his lack of scientific
methodology in proclaiming why the impeller on his outboard went bad or,
as he later stated, didn't go bad.

As for the hack thingie, it was a little joke. I think Gregg is a tad
oversensitive about his love affair with obsolete technology. Perhaps it
is a throwback to his days at IBM.

So, which of the righties here will solve Riemann? It assuredly won't be
me. I don't have the math chops for that.




I get sucked in from time to time but overall I really don't pay much
attention nor am I interested in the little squabbles that have invested
this newsgroup. Most are like a bunch of cackling old hens strutting
around making noise but not contributing anything of value.

The only thing I've noticed is a marked uptick in *your* tearing into
people, mostly because you've determined they are right-wing trash,
based simply on the fact that they don't subscribe to your liberal
views. It gets old real fast. I've been expressing some more
conservative views of late just to see how you'd react. You have
reacted (true to character) in exactly the manner that I expected.

This place is like a bunch of school children. This one won't talk to
this one, so they put them in their "Bozo" bin and pretend they don't
hear them. Give me a break. Slammer is the sole resident in my
filters, but only because he's a vile, potty mouthed troll who I have no

That's BS. You still respond to almost anything Harry says that you
read through a third party quote. If you really don't want to
communicate with Harry you need a filter on your outgoing as well as you
incoming. Filters don't work that way, so you need to exercise some
self restraint and discipline.

AAAA Plumbers, the first one in the Yellow Pages



Indeed, I'd want a *licensed* journeyman gas fitter to install a new gas
hot water heater, one who has at least:

Completed 32 hours of training in backflow prevention device testing

Completed 7,500 hours of training under the control and direction
of a licensed master plumber

Has held an apprentice license for at least four years

Has passed a comprehensive written examination

Those are the minimal requirements to get a journeyman's license in this
area.

The alternative, I suppose, is to hire an unlicensed home handyman type,
one whose formal training and experience in installing gas water heaters
was learned during a stint in the Coast Guard and in the assembly room
of an IBM factory.

The guy who supervised the digging of the trench for our generator and
the installation, hookup and testing of the gas lines was a licensed
master gas fitter who had a journeyman working under his direction.

I'll replace a faucet or pull and reinstall a toilet, but I'm not going
to fool around with propane or natural gas, nor am I going to let an
unlicensed handyman do that kind of job for me.

Sorry, Charlie. Say, if you need surgery, do you have any handy guy down
the street do it? Just how far does your disdain for formal education
and training go?

This place is like a bunch of school children. This one won't talk to
this one, so they put them in their "Bozo" bin and pretend they don't
hear them. Give me a break. Slammer is the sole resident in my
filters, but only because he's a vile, potty mouthed troll who I have no
interest whatsoever of engaging with. Plus, I think he's nuts.




I just kf harry and don... makes things easier for me...


That's BS. You still respond to almost anything Harry says that you
read through a third party quote. If you really don't want to
communicate with Harry you need a filter on your outgoing as well as you
incoming. Filters don't work that way, so you need to exercise some
self restraint and discipline.





It's not bs.. I have them filtered.. But I am sure you are sure you are
right because, well... you know..
