Gee willikers mister "Pop," sir...is that right? Golly! What's it like
to
be so smart?

While I'm new to discussion groups (I can usually find all the answers I
need in KB articles or elsewhere online) since I've been a
programmer/analyst, hardware technician and helpline specialist for over
thirty years I've got more advice to offer than I do questions, and here's
some for you: GET SOME MANNERS!

Out of a dozen replies to some half-dozen posts I've made in the last
couple
of days THREE of them have been rude and disrespectful, like yours--one of
them calling me "stupid"...and ONLY because he couldn't wrap his tiny
brain
around what I was saying.

IF YA CAN'T SAY SUMTHIN' NICE, DON'T SAY NUTHIN' AT ALL!

Since you make no apologies for your sarcasm I'm not going to apologize
for
my inadvertent breach of discussion group protocol, and after reading "How
can I post a message to more than one Usenet newsgroup?" what I'm
"getting"
is that such breaches primarily inconvenience the poster himself rather
than
the reader--so how difficult is it to JUST NOT READ the same post twice in
two different groups?

I realize that since they took Star Trek and "Zena, Warrior Princess" off
TV
prima donna computer geeks haven't had much besides PDAs and Bluetooth
technology to keep them company, but really: GET A LIFE! A great deal of
the acerbic sniping that goes on in these "professional" discussion groups
is
tantamount to the prattle exchanged by adolescents in teen chat rooms.
GROW
UP!



Why have you put this rant in another thread - you already have it in your
original thread - unless of course it is your intention to pizz everybody
off by having to read/delete all over again.
This will be my only response to you on this subject.
