-------------------------------------
First of all, I apologize for my english.
But you know, I am just a poor little italian.
I wish to thank you for plateally showing me how shabby you are.
Let's pass over any argumentation about the newsgroup itself, about
math, etc. etc.
There are many ways to express opinions.
Yours is definitely arrogant.
Well, just calling yourself "Mao-Tse-Tung" is an arrogant deed
(and, let me say it, there's nothing bizarre about it).
I never claimed nothing about you or your babeling about your
behavior.Anyone can see that you are here just to show to the public
your writings in an explosion of egocentrism.
Be bizarre as much as you want (...I think in real life you are a
even more shabby depressed and lonely one with a sad work...),
but please try to learn to be polite.
And for what concerns being bizarre...you think I can't write things
like "The Carbonduke Ezio was feeding is cobalt daisy with a green
reversal-watering-can when the third shuttle appeared in the skies
bringing the conspiracy leader Ahkorl Lomas to the jails" ?
I tried to making something different, mixing math with bizarre things,
but you didn't understood my try.
I end this few lines saying that I don't care what you think of me,
but still I hope that you will not be offended by my words.

Which altavista's translator tells me means,
In any case I hope just that people understand how much six
meschino, and begin to andarsene spontaneously from the newsgroup.
Personally I, too, hope that people begin to andarsene spontaneously
from the newsgroup, despite the obvious global impact of such actions.

Shabby? I do not think you make the correct usage of mister dictionary. I
am regal; you are shabby. You use """"""""logic""""""""" to make your world
fit in containers that you neatly organize and you, YOU, YOU would never
use the right tool for the job- you spend $300 on a thousand-size
screwdriver assortment and stand there searching through your drawers for
the right one when I come up behind you with a 5-pound hand beater and put
the screw in, solid, tighter than you could have screwed it, and then I go
ahead and do the same with all other sizes of fasteners, while you
frantically search for "making sense logically." You're pathetic, you
mathematics-oriented little shit. Take your motherfucking logic elsewhere,
because it has no place here and furthermore, I will NOT tolerate it in
this newsgroup. Am I making myself crystal clear?

Your opinions are meaningless. I am who and what I am, and you cannot

Exactly the reverse- I am too old to get into serious writing, and t.b is
simply my personal showcase by and for myself to look back on and see when
I hit and when I missed. But if I could utilize the processes of revision,
I could easily blow away most any author you can name. But I haven't the
patience and I have no idea HOW to revise or edit. All you see is
impromptu. That's all you'll ever see from me. Never revised a single
letter.

Of course you can. That's why you can't belong in the bizarre. You're one
of those hack sci-fi geeks. You're one of the most detestable people for
that.
> I tried to making something different, mixing math with bizarre things,

No. You never wrote one damn thing even CLOSE to being bizarre. And your
fucking mathematics is based on bullshit "logic", and therefore must be
purged forever from this place, and if I am the one who has to chase you
out with buckshot it sure as HELL won't be the first time, or the last.

Well, sound the alarms! A VIDEO GAME PROGRAMMER disagrees with an
affiliation of a software program and a very popular web page! Let's all
listen CLOSELY to what HE has to say, obviously he deals with this kind of
thing EVERY FUCKING DAY! Oh, no! He's IRRITATED! Hide! Run and hide!

And there's a problem with this? So, instead of paying US$245 and taking up
SEVENTY-FIVE FUCKING MEGABYTES of hard disk space, and apparently eating up
RAM like it's going out of style, having Al Tavista do the spending for you
and the megs and the RAM and providing the whole kit and caboodle to
ANYONE, for NO CHARGE, is completely and utterly WRONG? A company spends
its money buying things to entice and gain customers. This is a perfect
example of just that. You, with no comprehension whatsoever of economics or
business sense, think that it's abhorrent that a company would do the smart
thing. I thought you were a capitalist. Now you're just ignorant.

And this does nothing to prove your point. So shut the fuck up, boy.
I have already covered the potential of this type of "ludicrous" software,
which is astounding, and which you can find back in my thread with Laury
Do-ring where I posted a very long message (upwards of a thousand lines,
I'm guessing) where at the very bottom I told you how this could be made
into something much, much more. Something that would lay poetry to waste.
Bury it. And I'll pursue it, fund it if I am so inclined, but I have to
find souls interested and then competent first, which is impossible.

MTT is challenged by addition and subtraction of numbers smaller than
his IQ, so math postings at the cutting edge of theory are just
naturally going to make him feel even more inadequate than other
equippage provided by nature has already left him.
>I end this few lines saying that I don't care what you think of me,
None of us here care what MTT thinks of him or her, his opinions are so
obviously the ravings of a lunatic that to be criticized by him is a
high honor, comparable to achieving a place on the net.scum web pages.
>but still I hope that you will not be offended by my words.
He has a hide the thickness of a rhinocerous', I wouldn't worry too
much about offending him; if he were offendable, he'd have gone where
his postings were welcome, long ago.
Your math postings have been fun to date, but then I was once a math
major, so such things appeal to my warped priorities.
The most effective approach to MTT is a killfile entry in his honor.
Then you read and write in a (database theoretic) View of a Newsgroup
in which he fails, for the most part, to exist.

Hmm. Your mindset is apparently that of my
ex-spouse, who failed even to open the copy I
gave to her as a treasure worthy of her careful
perusal. I took it with me when I left.
The first three times _I_ read the book, its
hinges displayed no detectable inward springs.
Despite massive expensive training, some people
just cannot be successful computer programmers.
Despite little or no training, even impeded by
sensory deficiencies such as blindness or
deafness, other people cannot be successfully
prevented from becoming amazingly skilled
computer programmers.
Being able to enjoy the book is the same kind of
mental quirk, something, like perfect pitch, one
should enjoy having, but for which claiming
credit is just silly.

lessee: mao has convinced me, an ex-infantryman, that he was a combat
soldier at one time. wealth is a relative thing; I would imagine that
he maintains a comfortable upper-middle class existence, as do most of
the posters to this newsgroup except for the very young and the very
stupid. last I heard, chinaboy was claiming to be a manager in a comms
firm. I have no difficulty at all believing that he is, in fact, a
manager in a comms firm. his computer skills seem, if anything, to be
somewhat better than one would expect of someone who is a manager in a
comms firm.

My IQ is 162. The only time I ever used it was after the IQ test was over
and I was told what it was, and repeated it back because I couldn't heat
them very well. I am told that this is an average or above-average number,
but have no scale to register it upon.

Oh, of course. This is all military bullshit talk, I know that our Armed
Forces produce thousands of extremely competent folks... but that's over a

I haven't been explicit: I was 11C ('mortar crewman') and 11B ('light
weapons infantryman') and spent most of my time in service attached to
the 4.2 inch mortar platoon of the combat support company of the 2/37
armor which was based at that time in erlangen, BRD. I specialized
mostly in keeping people, officers and tankers from fucking with me,
secondarily in goofing off. After a while they decided that I was
really an artilleryman and gave me a new MOS of 13F ('artillery
forward observer'). I did this and that; I got away with a lot. I had
a lot of fun.

let's see: I was not particularly clumsy then. I wasn't afraid, but
that was because I had no real conception of what I was up for. when I
finally *did* get it (I'm a little slow, but not completely dense and
there were lots of vietnam veterans in the unit), of course I was
afraid.
but I would certainly have done my job if I had been asked to; I made
a deal with those people, after all. they weren't having any wars when
I was in (76 - 79), ultimately, is the reason I didn't fight in one.
I suppose I haven't really answered the question. Why am I thankful
not to have been in a war? hmm. I don't guess I really have an answer
for you. sorry.

right.
actually, my big interservice rivalry was with tankers. the most
intricate operations that I ever took part in involved stealing
heaters from the tanks and putting them in our tracks (we would order
heaters, they would get to battalion, tankers would steal them. we
would be detailed to gaurd the motor pool and steal them back). hee!
those were fun days.
I also smoked a lot of hash. this was back when no one really gave a
fuck if you used drugs as long as you showed up for work. I understand
it's different now.

So, we have that votes: 2.5 for male and 0.5 for female.
by Tangertas' arbitrary math, we have 2.5 = 1.7 and 0.5 = 3.
Thus, by majoritie rules, it is 3 votes for female and 1.7 for male.
I believe this is where the confusion arose.

>kent, you don't use enough drugs to understand this book.
Expand on "enough". I've gone through just over US$ 1K
on prescription medicines this month, for which, through
typical health insurance reactionarisms, I've had to write
checks for the full amount. When I dropped another check
for US$ 200+ at the pharmacy today, a checkout person whom
I didn't know from Eve took the occasion to remark: "Mr.
Dolan, we _really_ appreciate your business." This can get
old really fast when I am:
1) out of work due to an uncontrollable temper in an untenable work
situation;
2) part of an entire family seeing a chiropracter three times a week
for whiplash injuries received in a rear-ending collision that
ultimately involved five vehicles;
3) for which the insurance company dropped bluebook for the totaled
twelve year old compact, plus US$ 150 apiece for pain and suffering,
in a market where car prices have doubled or tripled in the same
interval, and a "standard" no injury "buy their silence" payment is
US$ 3000 per occupant of the victim vehicle;
4) thus employing a lawyer to sue them 'til they ooze blood [Seen "The
Rainmaker" yet? If not, do.], which is a bit much for me after
being raised by a lawyer-grandparent who used a razor strap to
maintain discipline;
5) doing the child care for a two-year-old mildly describable as
"strong-willed" while trying to avoid the litany of mistakes I made
fathering three now grown children, and nursing him through his
tenth ear infection so far;
6) acting as all day and all night nursemaid for a wife who's just had
a hip replaced, which leaves her somewhat less than cheerful;
7) saddled with housework and yardwork, both of which I despise; and
8) enjoying my thirteenth year of treatment for massive clinical
atypical monopolar depression (manic depressive minus the highs).
>sorry. it's not your fault or anything.
Who, me, a _victim_? I _chose_ to avoid scrambling what little brains
I have with street drugs, over four decades ago. The former heavy
alcohol use, the continuing caffeine addiction, the multiple daily
prescription psychoactive drug intakes, are all also more or less a
product of the action of free will choices made with sufficient
information to know better. My long acquaintance with those who've
lost their gamble with street drugs suggests that most of them couldn't
read the cover of Goedel, Escher, Bach..., much less understand the
contents. If you read second meanings into the prose there, you just
couldn't understand the first meanings the author intended.

semantics: the child was obviously male (use of word "he"). Thus it would be
fairly difficult to convince anyone that he was the queen of anything. "the
universe" i included because that would be a phrase that a child that age would
use repeatedly to qualify something great or expansive or good.

I have to disagree, since a lot of what I did was setting traps that
triggered explosives. Claymores are PERFECT for perimeter defense. If we had
them then, the twenty of us in that firebase would have slept much more
soundly. Here's how we did it, and then I'll tell you how we could have done
it: Scenario: Cambodian tropical mountain area. Firebase is a neat little
brick slap-it-together project thick enough to withstand mortar fire, which
was the biggest thing we worried about. Perimeter security done in shifts,
two men out of twenty awake at all times. The Khmer Rouge eventually will
find out where this firebase is. The two guys would sit and look through
starlight scopes for enemy. Thinking they were clever, the Khmer Rouge would
sneak up just behind the perimeter and we saw them digging holes. Then we
saw them bringing tarp-like things with them and gathering dirt onto them.
Aha, we figured, they were going to dig holes and sleep in them, then when
morning came and they heard us moving, they'd pop up out of the ground and
do evil unto us with their rifles. Aha, I thought, let's wait until morning.
Me and this other guy walk out the next morning early and sneak up around
behind the three enemies in their fairly-noticeable trenches. I walk up to
the first one, gently grab the edge of the tarp, pull the pin on a White
Phosphorous (WP) grenade, lift it up and heave that sucker in. In case
you're not familiar with WP grenades, they're nasty, horrible weapons.
Outlawed by the geneva convention, but since we weren't there, we violated
the damn thing on almost every count to get the job done. What happens is
first an explosion, a little more than a concussion grenade but about 1/3
the explosion of a hand grenade. Then the white phosphorous is sprayed
everywhere. A single drop of WP will burn a hole straithe through tank
armor, it just keeps burning through for a LONG, LONG time. Compare human
flesh, bone, organs to tank armor. It burns right through them and there is
absolutely no way to stop it. So the other guy does the same and the third
popup character no doubt is hearing the god-awful screams of the first two
as they're being eaten alive. He pops up and I swing my Ithaca 10-gauge
sawed-off cylinder shotgun over and blow his head off, literally.
If we had claymores, all that would have to happen is once the first guy
spotted them, he'd pop a couple of claymores and that would puree the three
of them. Simple but effective.
And about being stupid enough to walk into an ambush- EVERYONE is when you
get a local reputation as the "shadow warriors" and do the kind of shit that
we did. We were really good at what we did and were never ambushed, but we
did have a crazy melee once when they came in from all sides and we were
sleeping. I had my pistol belt off, of course, and as I heard the noise of
the first shots, I groped about and found a machete and joined the
hand-to-hand fight. That was the most gruesome thing I ever did there, and
that includes the many, MANY instances of severing heads, dropping people
out of helicopters, even disemboweling a whole patrol and leaving them
because we knew another one was going to pass by there in the next ten
minutes. People were throwing axes, fighting with axes and shovels, swinging
rifles, bayonets, knives, it was a huge and bloody mess, and we killed nine
of them (the seven of us) and the rest ran away. You couldn't use firearms
because they were intermixed with your own, and there is no such thing as
"friendly fire."

I actually thought about putting Mao into a killfile, but you know,
this gets more amusing with every post.
Which of the below statements most accurately describes Mao's
recent spate of verbal frothing?
1) Is this what is known as a mid-life crisis?
2) A sudden coming to grips with one's own mortality.
3) The sudden onset of catabolism.
4) A man in serious need of a valium.
5) A man in serious need of a Fruitopia cap.

Yo! I really don't know about that!
But I do think I know what is what--

And I think of all truths--at least some;
While still pondering things I have done:

I must say she had nothing to fear,
Since I'd said that I'd come back anon,
Once I'd listened to Pachelbel's Canon!

These non-rhymers, they've made quite the coup!
Had they took it, then with their loot flown?

I see that my remark has been widely misunderstood, and perhaps was

my point was this: if you are fighting across unfriendly territory for

For extreme amusement, call 800-400-8781 and ask them to mail you an info
packet. This is one of the reps in "Futurenet" which appears to be some
sort of Amway-like distributor system to sell WebTV boxes at substantial
markup. Just reading the WebTV info is hilarious, not only because of the
"gee whiz" nature of the prose or the 12-year-old level at which it is
written, but because it really seems to miss the whole point of what the
internet is for, as a two-way communications medium.
Definitely worthwhile for the laugh value. Joe Bob says check it out.

Can the smiley. A post from a Webteevee luzer is by definition a smiley.
Johnstown, huh? Strip mining, inbreeding and floods. That about sums it
up, I think. Oh yeah, almost forgot, bad grammar. I would be ashamed to
claim to have represented my country and post such crap. A third-grader
could write more comprehensable sentences than this garbage you have
trotted out. Have you no shame? Have a happy retirement, assuming you
figure out what was said by then. One more thing, the day I say it to your
face *is* the day I say it to your face. Having done it, I cannot undo it.
BTW, where can I buy a silly biting pillow?
One more thing, how long did it take before you had all the cigarettes in
the jail, Sunshine?

There are no winners and losers - it's all in how you play the game -

I wanna be on the team that DOESN'T get them (well, not as much

Yes, I noticed the klaxon call in your group about how there was
a man who everyone hated.
Newsgroup secrets tolled out arbitrarily to repulsively stupid
invaders for their battle cries.
Sold out in green-eyed fits of mad jealousy and anger at previous
stings taken FAR too personally.
Dishonor in a feeble solution displays the guilty creed and the
lackluster ideals.
Daddy still loves you, but he's going out to buy a hard leather
belt.

Mao is a loser. Great. He posts 10 or 15 posts
a day, or whatever insane amount. Great. We all
hate it. Great.
We don't need sixteen people from soc.penpals [*]
following up every freaking one of his posts.
His 10 or twelve pieces of crap beget another 100.
I hope you're enjoying my hundred.
If you don't believe it, just go to dejanews and
see how many posts there are per day in t.b. up
until the last three days.
buzzard
[*] Just in case you, my poor soc.penpals reader,
doesn't believe this, I've produced a list.
This was semi-mechanically generated, and is simply
people who have posted to t.b. in the last three
days and posted to soc.penpals in the last few days.
They may have only posted once to t.b. and then left
for all I know. As far as I can tell, they are
"single"handedly generating more content in t.b.
then all of the t.b. regulars put together. Although
I'm working on _that_ singlehandedly.

scene: ReForGer, 1978. somewhere in northern (west) germany. me and my
jeep, and my driver who outranks me and the shavetail I am babysitting
are attached to a tank company. some random captain wanders by to
chat.
Captain: I understand our position is being overrun.
Me: So what do we do now?
C: Have the 8 inch guns drop a couple hundred rounds on our position.
M: OK. What do we do? [we being the infantry and me and a couple other
folks that don't have tanks]
C: Hide under the tanks. Call for airbursts at 50 meters or so.
M: WP?
C: Sure. Airbursts.
M: OK. Chances are fairly good that most of us will live through it.
C: Yeah. Kill the bad guys, most of us will live, after the barrage we
come out from under the tanks and kill any bad guys who survived.
M: Sounds good. Then what?
C: Then we open up the tanks, pull the bodies out, and drive away.
