Obviously, gas scooters are not welcome in most camping areas and are not
legal in most.
If anyone is interested in a quality electric scooter, drop me a note and I'll
point you to some. Hint: You can't go wrong with the Currie brand.

Obviously you don't use usenet much, or you'd know that spam is

John De Armond,
You were too easy on him.
He should be hung with a new rope just for sale a scooter with no front brake.

Second spam, this time with full knowledge that it's against the
rules. At the risk of invoking another angry potty-mouth, I've
reported it to groups...@google.com
After John's report, perhaps it should be reported as fraud, as well.
True. However, considering that you can probably run faster than these things
will go on any sort of grade, dragging your feet would probably do.
My Badsey has no front brake, something I've flamed them about fairly
severely. Given that it can do 50+ with the governor bypassed, that is a
serious omission.

With 800 cc and 2.5 HP, your electrics could probably out-accellerate any of
those, too. >>
My Super Eagle with two speed transmission burned a lot of rubber when I
popped the clutch. It beat the Vespas of the day. For some reason, I don't
remember if it had a front brake.

I, of course, can't prove that our friendly new scooter spammer posted this
since he chose to remain "anonymous" (synonymous with "coward") but given that
I've not flamed anyone else on the net in months....
Memo to spammer: Try Google. It's free. You'll be able to find out all you
need to know about me. Or just give me a call. My restaurant's in the phone
book.
I hadn't realized the internet had gotten this scummy. A gossip system in
which you have to pay to even correspond with someone who could be libeling
you. One can gauge the quality of the people running this site by the
mis-spelling(s) in the automated message :-)
It just dawned on me that this site could be useful. If someone would salt
the site with the names and addresses of the dullards on this forum who want
to talk politics and throw stones at others, then perhaps they'd use their
time flaming each other on the gossip board and leave this place alone.
Hmmmm...

The charter is clear: Businesses can't promote themselves. Individuals

When I was a teenager, I was immortal- didn't think anything could kill
me.

You survived, so apparently you were right -- at least then.

Don't agree with that. An 80 cc bike is capable of anything
but turnpike speeds. Operation in an urban environment is as
safe as anything bigger.

So have I. Bye
HD in NY
In Europe where motorized bikes are far more common and taxed on engine
displacement and where most engines have less than 50 cc, any 80 cc bike
would have 6 speeds and easily be capable of turnpike speeds.

You not only haven't been around Usenet long enough to know the rules,
you haven't been alive and awake long enough to know the difference
between an advertisement and a user recommendation.
Which is true of course. I just wouldn't climb on a Vespa
scooter and try to wrassle with heavy traffic on a turnpike.
Too much like playing Russian Roulette. Besides, even the
fastest scooters won't do typical wacky turnpike speeds,
plus it really isn't safe to have an angry trucker 6' off
your tail light at 70 mph. YMMV
HD in NY
You have to admit he is one president little bugger with his spam.

I was thinking more along the line of Mopeds instead of this dirty motorized
two stroke Vespa scooters, and I have to agree with you I would never take
one of this suicide sleds on the turnpike.

It came from the email address you are faking. Sometimes when you make
up fake addresses, they turn out to already belong to someone else.
I won't bother to track it down, but I suppose you're just a sock
puppet for RAKS.

I'm glad you finally decided to be honest about who you are, at least
after you've been caught.
If you're trying to ask a question, please provide some context, and
think about what you're trying to achieve. This will help you phrase
the question better. In the meantime, use "man floor" if you're on
Unix, or consult the MSDN docs if on Windows.
If you're trying to implement "floor", or some variation of it, it's
usually not wise to optimize for specific ranges or specific
platforms. If you have a need to do that, write your function, but
give it a different name to avoid confusion with the standard library.
I can be of more help if you clarify your question.

ROFL- id 6066 - is that the mark of the spambeast?
I have got 17 emails asking to repost the URL, but to a surprise, not
a one said not too.
To my fellow Spamcop Alan, I always try to hit the porn spam, that is
the true spam that you get in your email in hope your kid don't see
them...Get those guys not brag and complain about the few on the
message boards.
Spamcop rules are: If you object to a certain post, you should also
make every effort to educate the poster before you report them to
their ISP. Usenet is a place where many people learn about netiquette
for the first time. If you think the poster is doing the wrong thing
out of ignorance, please try to educate them nicely via email before
you cry spam. Don't clutter the newsgroup with these educational
messages they are against the rules. Send the poster email. If the
person continues to post spam to your group and they are unwilling to
be educated, only then should you bring the issue to the attention of
their ISP.
Thanks
Kim :)

I suggest you keep your 17 replies to private email. Those who object
to spamming aren't afraid to do it here, instead of sending you email.

We did that. The spammer persisted. He or she even acquired new
identities in the process.

Nonsense. Spam here, read here. Newsgroup participants have no
obligation to notify spammers via email. In fact, spammers often spoof
their address, or use a throw-away account which they never check.
>Don't clutter the newsgroup with these educational
>messages they are against the rules.
No they aren't. Discussions of netiquette and topicality are topical
on any newsgroup. Have you read the charter?

See above.

Oh, yeah, I'll just bet you did. We believe you. Sure we do.

I take it you mean persons such as yourself?
We're tired of it, Kim. Give it a rest. You're not contributing
