Most people who play golf can't spell at all and, instead, use spell
checkers and their secretaries to do it for them.

Yup, the wrong way. And you still cry when everything goes wrong and
blame everyone else instead of look at yourself.

Sure, swing it at anything near you right now. Might I suggest the
computer. You'll get more use out of it that way.

If people used their brains instead of whining like a gerbil with no food
maybe I would treat them as something other than the rodents they are.

Whoa, Fascist so soon? Come now, I expected better of you. So far you're

Nah, I can identify problems and most times offer reasonable solutions.
That, of course, requires critical thinking, problem solving and a lot of
intuition. Thins you lack completely.

Why? I can do that just fine.

Nope. Idiot "majority rules" lemmings like you do, which is 9/10ths of
the problem in most nations.

That is supposed to impress me? Hell, I admit I'm a curmudgeon and an

Prove that I am wrong. So far your method takes more effort to do basic
things, mangles more text and causes more problems.
> Maybe the "problem" was with the *technology*?
Nope. The problem is with the people trying to break standards that are
there to enable them to communicate and then wonder why they can't when they
do.

> Not the other way around.
It is also up to the industry to not break standards. If they do then the
whole system breaks down and the customer gets nothing. Witness the whole
IE/Netscape war of competing /EXTENSIONS/ and ignorance of standards. End
result were a ton of pages which look like crap on 1/2 browsers.
Cardinal rule of the internet, bucko, don't break standards.

Really? They get to that provider and fiund out that most bounce messages
that are too large anyway.

Maybe you should learn more about both. You don't ruin the basis of your
business in the name of the customer.

You're off by a few factors.

Those specs were designed before we started business. We were just doing
the responsible thing which is adhering to them.
> But you do sound like the typical ISP guy.

Why? Because we won't do everything every customer wants and in doing so
break all conectivity and security causing a complete outage of service? You
know, most people are quire glad that we don't bow down to every petty wish
and do that. They actually like being able to communicate from point A to
point B.

Only when they have gone through the appropriate process to create a new
standard which includes peer review by the people who actually know what is
going on instead of the rats (that's people like you), who whine about things
not working without ever wondering why it doesn't work. And then it is a
/NEW/ standard, not the old one which was broken. I have no problems with a
/NEW/ standard being put in place to allow large transfers. However, it has
to beat out several existing technologies designed for such a task and simple
ways to access them.
> That should be your freakin' motto until you can talk to people decently.
No, my motto is "The ingenuity of human stupidity will never cease to
amaze me." People like you made me create that one and in the 10 years since
I've coined it it has been true nearly every day since.

No, until a better drying process came along. But then, I didn't expect
an ignorant twit such as yourself to know anything about history beyond the
revisiting of dinner.

*chuckle* As compare to whom, you? The gerbil of the world. "It doesn't

Nah. Trust me, I'm on a better track than you are.

Nah, you don't have the intelligence to even do simple things with a text
editor. The best you can aspire to is being the first ever Darwin Award
based on an actual death. I'd metting something that involves beastiality and
motorsports in some new, inbred configuration. You'll be a pioneer for your
kin.
