it's the pattern recognition.

it's the ability to step back and see...

the causes and effects of the ebbs and flows.

thus allowing you to paint both the big picture and the small.

and every one in between.

(theoretically, anyway).

You know zero, I wish to hell you'd take a sec to engage in "pattern
recognition" yourself, I wish you'd "step back and see the causes and
effects" of what you're doing to the newsgroup with these stupid
posts. It's really becoming a sort of spamming thing.

Nobody here can make you stop, not that any are even gonna try - but
really -- you oughta somehow get a grip, kid. If you really want to
get attention, (and I believe that's what you're looking for) -- this
sure as hell ain't the way to do it.

Zero's not doing anything to MW that it's not doing to itself. These
are some of the few posts that don't involve personal attacks on other
MWers or MIGS, or whatever they're called. Some of them are even
interesting enough to reply to.

For awhile there, the ng was getting a tiny handful of posts a day,
and I began to wonder if it had shut down for good.

I think I detect a pulse.
