Why do you insist on reposting every single bit of previous drivel

Reggie is a troll, nothing more.

Yes, but flying inthe face of all reason, I'd like to see him become a

Wayne,
Considering the fact that 98% of the posts in rec.boats, including all
the ones from Harry previous to my response, are not trimmed, what made
you realize that trimming posts should be a priority?

I understand I don't use profanity in my posts, but I didn't know that
was a requirement.

I checked. Snorffle is not in the OED. Chortle is. In fact, it is a word
coined by Lewis Carroll, according to the etymology. I found no entries
attributed to Short-Waisted Fisherdude.

Piffle - Lewis Carroll learned every thing he knew from me.

In fact...well, never mind.

Trust me - it's snorffle.

I'm pretty sure Tom meant to say, "Lewis Carroll learned every thing
he knew about writing from me.".
