It seems to me I heard somewhere that pltrgyst wrote in article

But because you keep snipping [1] the 'Newsgroups:' line for no apparent/good reason, it might not apply in your neck of the woods. Perhaps it's only the monkfish. -- Larry [1] Or is Forte Agent *that* broken? |

[1] Or is Forte Agent *that* broken? No, I just don't care to cross-post. I only inhabit rec.travel.usa-canada. As I'm sure you're aware, posting to multiple groups is often inappropriate, and almost always leads to off-topic subthreads or derivatives lingering forever in both groups. -- Larry |

No, I just don't care to cross-post. I only inhabit rec.travel.usa-canada. No offense, but we (TINW) don't care that you don't care, and we don't care which group(s) you inhabit. Someone posted in some groups and you responded. No offense, but I don't care that you don't care that I don't care. There's nothing that says I have to play by your imaginary rules and cross-post. I intended my reply for consideration by only those in the usa-canada group. I have no interest in discourse with those discussing travel in the southern hemisphere. .... N.B. I realize full well and acknowledge that you can do as you damn well please, but that does not mean that we have to take it lying down, does it!? :-) On USEnet? Of course not! Have at it! But first, Frank, as I sit here sipping MacChouffe and nibbling a sensational Boerenkaas, it was nice meeting you. But all good things must come to an end, so -- {threadkill} and {plonk}. -- Larry |
