Not necessarily:
http://www.dedanaan.com/elvencabal/fhead.html

However, I think only a few here qualify for the netiquette definition -
the others, whom what's-her-name have grouped with the actual ****heads,
have been merely negligent in not noticing that the damn thread is
getting crossposted by default to:
alt.genealogy,sci.electronics.design,rec.travel.eu rope,rec.travel.cruises
none of whom (except s.e.d, of course) have the slightest interest in any
of our petty yammering, and who probably find it quite annoying, which
those who have plonked (or have been tempted to) can probably understand.

I've sent a message there from Pig Bladder, with the NG list trimmed to
only rec.travel.cruises, mentioning something much to the same effect,
albeit somewhat less delicately.

So, we can keep the NG Diane-free by just looking at which NGs we're
crossposting our followups to, OK?

I've crossposted this one, so now, the outsiders will know that an
s.e.d'er has offered a clue to s.e.d.

But This Is My Last Crosspost to
alt.genealogy,rec.travel.europe,rec.travel.cruises

Thanks,
Rich

Bitchy, bitchy. Would you mind stop tripling the size of this thread?

- YD.

That's what the "block sender" feature in OE is good for.

Keep your sticky fingers off our Yule. We (humans) were celebrating the
Winter Solstice thousands of years before you traduced the teachings of
Bar Yussuf.

Might be the last one this time though. We can't find any virgins in the
village this year, so the sun might never come back...

What a fun reply! Thanks.

In never ceases to amuse me that instead of just plonking a poster the
plonker finds annoying, some plonkers feel the need to announce the

I know- like their plonking does any good anyway- those messages still
make it to Google- and there's not a damned thing they can do about
that. It is telling that some retards cannot handle contrary opinions,
dissent, or criticism- watch'em run and put their heads in the sand. It
is well known that Clarence's messages are not worth the minuscule
expenditure of energy it takes to click them open- so he is on a mental
ignore which means I don't even notice him- no killfiles or other
efforts necessary.

From: ando (RTCReferee)
I spent the day in East Berlin many years ago and recall that in the
famous museum there that the statues had the German equivalent of
"before our time" instead of "before Christ" written on the plaques for
the statues.
I've been wondering whether that has been reversed.
Has anyone been to East Berlin and noticed?

JUST one question and i know it is off topic but so is this thread.
With the way things are going do you think it is POSSIBLE that we MIGHT
become a "communist" country??
30+ years ago I would have said NO WAY, but now....YES it is POSSIBLE.
