Harry is posting via two servers, Gene's and another one. A quick look
at the heads will tell you which server the posts are coming from. Harry
has the best of both worlds now. He can post in a well behaved manner
via Gene's server and at the same time post snarky replies via his other
server. Since the snarky posts are being originated from Gene's server
Gene won't terminate his access.

Well, things should get better. I just plonked salty and harry, as
soon as my other bud posts again, he will get the same. Last time i
did it wrong and killed entire threads.. Think I got it right this
time.;) Agent is quite extensive, a lot to go though, I guess I'll
need to be a little more patient..

Hey Dick, let me know if you are getting my posts, if you are using
Genes server to read and post you won't...

--------------------------

I alternate back and forth between Gene's server and my Giganews server,
mainly because it's interesting to see how his filter algorithms work.

For example .... this whole thread .... originally started by Harry ....
does not show up on Gene's at all, at least not so far.
So you aren't there, but none of the respondents, including Harry's
original
post "Even the geek who has everything" is not there at the time of this
post.

Yet, all of our OT discussion about the Norwegian Utopia is there.

I've noticed that most of the time posts on Gene's server show up much
later
after they appear on Giganews, although occasionally they show up on
Gene's
faster.

The above post by you just showed up on Gene's server, along with some of
the thread started by Harry, although his original post isn't here ... yet

I think the point of Gene's server is, that if you were using it, you
wouldn't see the snarky posts.

Hendrix sounds like ****, digital.

Does anyone honestly have any idea what that means? I'm sure
Stairflopper doesn't. I'm just curious if anyone else can parse it and
make some sense of it.

Maybe he's not a Hendrix fan. :)

Our family attorney is a big time audiophile with all kinds of early
Marantz, Mac and Sherwood stuff - collects them actually - and once I
took over my prized Derek and The Dominos (autographed) album to play
on his Mac system.

The comparison to what you get off a CD is incredible to say the
least.

Remember the good old days when CD's were paying 16% interest? OTOH
mortgage rates were 18%.

I was lucky enough to move a good percentage of my investments into a
Pacific Life annuity in 2006 that guarantees a minimum return of 6% yet will
pay higher depending if the investment options show a greater return.



I've been smart enough to stay away from annuities.

Actually, I post via *three* servers, and it has nothing to do with
simple-minded BAR's claim. Gawd, it must be awful, going through life as
he does, terminally stupid.

I rest my case.

That's what I thought also, until I looked at the posts. Harry's **** is
showing up there in droves.

But, I see none of Don White's **** there. And I've seen only three of
JimH's posts there.

Maybe it's working - a little.

The posts from those folks posting thru greatnowhere are being incorrectly
threaded and in some cases delayed on other Usenet servers.

I have no idea how they look on the greatnowhere server.

It screws it for people using other than the "great" server, this I know for
sure.

lately.

Right now, I'm using two. But the main one is the one I normally use, not
Gene's.

Filtering does a pretty good job, but there are some folks who have to
argue (needlessly and futilely, but 'respectfully') with the guy. Now, if
they'd only delete the quotes!

That would be a start..;) Especially when you consider only two other
posters can really join in them with any substance (like honest
debate) without being attacked... My family has a lot more experience
on the "working end" of the union, than even our friend wafa.. But
trying to bring those experiences to any conversation here is useless,
it's frustrating as hell. All it will bring is more name calling,
editing and reposting, and deflections.

A better method might be to start with a real count, and not a guess..
A relevant contest would allow us one point for each insult or snarky
remark directed at us, and two for outright lies or
misrepresentations. So far, your count seems intellectually lazy.
