So its Tel and me vs the rest. !!! Thats ok by me. Not that I like it but its
not the first time I've
been out of step.
Thing is that I am on dialup modem which is slow and which costs per minute. It
is not a lot
per minute but it does add up to a significant amount of my budget each month.
And yes, I
live on a mountain, not near any city. And on the other side of the world from
most of you.
I really am only here to find stuff to put in my operations manual which is
sent out with my CS
generators. I'm still looking for precautions or practical tips to pass on. I
haven't seen
anything new or noteworthy here for a long time. I made my first CS gen in
early 1996
following a Mark Metcalf reprint from a Nexus magazine. I think I joined this
forum in about
1998 or 99
To scathing Faith. What is an 8 ball?? Quite frankly I am offended by your
constant
sharpness, rudeness and attempts at sarcasm. Actually I don't feel any better,
just feel sick
that knowing that what was a wonderfully helpful, practical and knowledgeable,
nurturing and
specific forum has turned into something for me to complain about or unsub
from. It seems
to be a no holds barred, limitless melee of people all saying something,
anything, just for the
sake of it.
and to doubting Wayne. I'm not sure whether you are calling me a liar or just
can't find the
words to say what you want to say? I kept 10 messages and deleted 193 which is
close
enough 5 % of the one days messages. Those kept were important enough for me to
want to
save for some reason. CS pertinent messages were only a part of that lot. Today
I counted
92 in the bin and about 30 kept so the percentage is much better but a lot of
those pertain to
this message. OK, I hope that satisfies your doubts.
What do you mean "Ask a question" ? ... Like? Like, "Tell me what I
don't know,
Please?" In fact I did ask you some questions about three or four years ago and
you never
gave any sensible answers, just went on about bigger and better fuses,
batteries, telephones,
circuitbreakers, circuitboards, rifles and carrots; when I'd asked you about
current control. I
figured you didn't know anything about it so left you to it.
I was on about having to go through 50 to 200 messages twice a day now
and
skimming each one to see if there is anything worthwhile or if not then
pressing the delete
button. Its the reading time that is the real time waster. Spending an hour or
more doing
something as futile as deleting gratuitous ego stuff is ... umm .. irritating.
It would not be good
to ban it. Carol Ann's vitC/ cancer story is a keeper, thanks that is very dear
to my heart.
Odes 'poetry' is delightful, Jack Kerouac almost. John goes on but I trust
where he is coming
from.

I do already filter all downloaded messages with CS> in the Subject to a CS
folder. I usually
sort this by date in reverse order and then by thread. I could also filter and
delete at the
server before downloading; any email with CS> in the Subject but with no
mention of silver or
CS in the body; but that would defeat the purpose of Mikes CS list which, I
think, is to talk
about CS mainly and other health products and problems incidentally.
I unsubbed from the CS OT list about 4 or 5 years ago because it was then
mainly american
political discussion which does not interest me in any way. And quite a lot of
gratuitous
nastiness.
I FEEL GOOD. now that i have that off my chest.

That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have
