Long time no 'see'! We have this hate/love thingie going on, don't we? We trash eachother, unless someone else trashes either of us, then one comes to the rescue of the other. Weird, but kinda nice. Anyway, care to explain *why* you think it had no business in australia+nz to begin with? *I* *said* why I thought it was justified to crosspost. Just - implicitly - saying "You're wrong!", without explaining why, doesn't cut it. IME/IMO, stripping groups most of the time creates more problems than it 'solves', and stripping without saying so is nearly always inappropriate. FWIW, *my* rule is that I don't strip groups, unless they are *totally and utterly* inappropriate, *and*, if and when I do, I leave all groups in the Newsgroups: line intact and strip only in the Followup-To: line, *and* *say so* in my text. In that way, nobody is taken by surprise. (That is how Newsgroups:/Followup-To: should be used.) Again, no blardy biz in rec.travel.australia+nz. Again: *What* is "no blardy biz in rec.travel.australia+nz" and *why*? Cath Ooh ! Looks like the "Net Cop" is back once more.... Like many Euros, Frank thinks that HE knows best. You Misunderstood Sharx35. I was referring to the "Net Cop" Cath................ The controller of "rec.travel.aus+nz............... Whatever, Tony, whatever. Net cops come in many nationalities...most share the "control freak" mentality that MANY LIEbrawls have. |

And you saying that to *Tony*, exactly *why*? But to 'please' you: No, I never think that I know *best*. In some or perhaps even many cases, I not just *think* I know, but I *know* I know (but not "best", which is a stupid concept, which apparently only obnoxious anonymous jerks believe in). So how about you, when will you try the "think" bit? (The "know" bit is for the next round.) |

[...] Like many Euros, Frank .... Our dear friend has used the "Euro" - what I *thought* to be - 'insult', many times before. At first, I found it not insulting at all, only rather unimaginative and non-funny, i.e. rather on par with my expectations. But I did not realize what he *obviously* *really* meant! I'm so sorry for being so slow on the uptake, and thank you very much for your ever so kind compliment! |

Because as you well know taking into account your years around Usenet and your self proclamation of being an Administrator etc, your posting had no place in rec.travel.australia+nz. Are you having a 'senior moment' by any chance? No, but apparently *you* had, *twice*. *I explained why* I crossposted and *asked you why* you think it didn't belong in australia+nz. You didn't answer, so apparently you *have* no answer/reason. Wouldn't be the first time. So what you didn't go to Aussie this time and went to the US instead. Like the world revolves around your travels. Maybe not, but it surely doesn't revolve around your reading, comprehension and writing problems. Anyway, you could have fooled me, but I swear my newsreader mumbled something about "travel" in the Newsgroups: line! Bloody UNIX stuff, - apparently - full of bugs! BTW, one *can't* "go to Aussie", ask any 'Ozzie'. Maybe I should start posting my travels within the US and beyond in rec.travel.australia+nz. I bet there would quickly be an outcry from a couple of people eh. If you had no reason, yes. *I* had one and *gave it*. Bummer heh, those annoying things called "facts"!? As for being 'afraid that might see my response'. Cowardice? That has to be the dumbest statement you have made in a long time Frank! Again, you don't say *why* you think it's dumb. Stamping-of-little-feet is not a particularly strong argument. Actually it's not one at all. Tony is a 'loud mouth Aussie' i.e. mouths off but offers extremely little to the ng in the way of assistance to those seeking help. Then why, just a few hours ago, did you ask him to *help*, *twice*!

I think the Canucks (sp?) would probably take offense at the "North America" classification! :-) Not at all. "North America" is merely a geographical designation. Their trade and economies are very closely linked in many ways, including their cellphone services. And includes Mexico as well, which doesn't link its cellphone services. |
