No, dipshit. When you come into OUR group, top posting like a
fucking Usenet retard, you ARE invading our space, regardless of
whether your retarded ass feels you have a right to or not.

You are an interloper, at best.
Oh Boy! I'm impressed! Nope.

Not a newbie, dipshit. You must be, however, since you think this
is an e-mail forum. I'm surprised that you haven't attempted to post
HTML.

In Usenet, you don't even get 15 seconds of fame, asshole. Oh, and
you can bet that you are an asshole.

You leave the stench of a eight year old still in diapers.

Deep denial.

got you beat by two years... 1986 email and USENET access via a dumb
terminal connected to a DEC mainframe, back-bone site on the old ARPANET.
UNIX system and posted using the vi text editor. Fewer wankers in those
days.

Low Life #3, allow me to introduce you to Troy Heagy, performance troll
and the self styled "most annoying man on usenet"

Troy posts under at least half a dozen names (see below) and his game is
to create a thread that might otherwise be interesting, and introduce a
deliberate mistake into it, and watch it fall apart with people arguing
about his mistake instead the actual topic.

He's been busted in rec.arts.tv so many times that he's expanding his
net to other groups, like mostly sci-fi like Farscape, and technical
ones like these. But he sets the cross posts to rec.arts.tv to show
that he's still managing to annoy us here.

He'll now scream that we're haters, and are stalking him, etc., etc.,
etc., and probably threaten legal action, yadda yadda yadda.

Oh, and he sends death threats to people that expose him like this, and
then will claim they've been sending HIM death threats, and writing his
boss and trying to get him fired, blah blah blah.

Nothing you say will change the fact that you are absent any whisp

Actually, he's a troll. That Troy Heagy. He's on a campaign to spread
his trolling to lots of new groups. While it's tempting to play with
the troll, it's best overall to frustrate him by ignoring or killfiling
him.

I agree - the modem was wonderful. We had acoustic couplers back in the
70's, 300 baud. 1200 bps modems were a great leap forward. Text finally came
in faster than you could read it.

About 1982 I was writing applications for the TRS-80 - 64k memory, up to 4
5.25 floppy drives.

It is interesting to look back at that equipent, and the work that was
produced. Certainly financial statements are not any better now, and the
actual content of reports seems to have gone down a bit. Appearance and
convenience are way up, but productivity is down because people are spending
way too much time on appearance and not enough on results. When there was
only one font, you didn't spend hours getting the leading and kerning set
just right.

I wouldn't go back, but I am always after the staff to concentrate on
content over flashy appearance.
