ntawlf: Not The Answer We're Looking For

Game 20

Question 2: Because another work with a similar title was to be
released around the same time, this person had to come up with
something different. After sinking into a depression and taking a
leave of absence from his or her day job to ponder the problem, a
collaborator on the project came up with the solution.
Who was this person? What was the original title of work?

11/06: Sheena Easton, 9 to 5 (Ken, Portland) ntawlf
11/05: Missed it, sorry
11/02: John Lennon, He Did It His Way (Phil, Cherry Valley) ntawlf

Question 1: Without his knowledge false writtings attributed to this
man of science made big headlines and created quite a public stir.
After some scientific scrutiny it was revealed to be a hoax.
Who was the man of science? What did the writings claim? Where did the
story first appear?
(this is a THREE part question folks! - Penny)

OFFICIAL ANSWER: Sir John Herschel, there was life on the moon, the
New York Sun

11/02: CORRECT ANSWER!: John Herschel, the moon had beaches and
oceans, live birds and winged men, the New York Sun (Phil, Cherry
Valley)

heres a total stab...

bill gates...

interface manager - aka microsoft windows

trying to verify the story but i think sunmicro systems was about to release
an os that used the term interface manager in the name...

Microsoft first began development of the Interface Manager (subsequently
renamed Microsoft Windows) in September 1981. Although the first prototypes
used Multiplan and Word-like menus at the bottom of the screen, the
interface was changed in 1982 to use drop-down menus and dialogs, as used on
the Xerox Star.

now... since all the fanfare has been snipped from this and reply and the
reply your"replying too" i could only guess shes replying to the "copy cat".

the rule was made in the event someone was trying to "impersonate" an aol
employee, or chat room host.

cut and paste from the acutaly tos guidelines:

* Pretend to be anyone whom you are not. You may not impersonate another
member (including celebrities), an AOL employee, or a Community Leader.

however its pretty pointless, all this person has to do IF AOL even gives a
crap is say, "but my name is tina and i like the 49ners."

Hardly, since this person has gone so far as to even steal my sig and post in
this group.
In my Survivor group there is a girl who uses the name MsNewz and someon tried
to imitate her useing MissNewz and that person was reported and the names are a
lot different. The group monitor said their account would be closed. You can't
do it. PERIOD.

that did.

No, I don't find her behavior odd.

You, because of your behavior in this newsgroup, have been told you are
unwelcome and, IMHO, most of us have tried to make you feel unwelcome.
I hearken back to the time you drove me out of the Mark and Brian AOL
folder and then this newsgroup. To this day, I don't know what I did to
incur your wrath, nor do I care. What I did was to leave the situation
where I felt so unwelcome. The fact you still subscribe to the
newsgroup is what I find odd.

I interpreted her reaction to Bill saying that AOL's message boards are
not Usenet newsgroups.

All that I was doing was describing how her post sounded to me. She
sounded like a 4 year old kid having an argument. You know how they
put their hands on their hips or cross their arms across their chest,
stomp their feet and say, "So there." then they stick out their
tongue and spit at their adversary. That's how Tina sounds to me.

You guys need to get over this implied crap. I dont imply anything. If I mean

If thats your opinion, then I clearly believe both you and Mikki are
unbalanced.

I find this absouletely amazing. I dont even recall you posting here until
right before the picnic, so it amazes me that I wounded you so deeply.

You think its odd that I come to a group about something I'm interested in? Is
it odd that I like Barry Manilow and subscribe to that group?

I call all the groups I post to groups, it makes it easier for people to know
what I mean. See, a lot of my friends aren't on computers--yes, I know, I find
it shocking too--so it is layman's terms I use. *I* know when its a board or a
newsgroup. I just dont want to confuse them.

I'm not here because you want me here or not and you have no control over it. I
dont come here to make friends so it doesn't bother me if you dont like me. Do
you guys read anything I post, because you just keep saying the same dull
things over and over. Let me make this clear:
IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME THAT YOU DONT LIKE ME, I'M NOT HERE TO MAKE FRIENDS.
Please repost this so everyone gets the message.

AGAIN FOR THE READING IMPAIRED. I'M NOT HERE BECAUSE YOU WANT ME HERE OR NOT.
I'M HERE BECAUSE *I* WANT TO BE HERE.

No, I unerstand that most people dont want me here. I DONT CARE.

[Mikki]

okay, I really want to understand then. In a recent post, you wrote
that you enjoy the time you spend in this newsgroup; Why do you enjoy
it here? In one of the following paragraphs, you wrote, "AGAIN FOR

THE READING IMPAIRED. I'M NOT HERE BECAUSE YOU WANT ME HERE OR NOT.
> I'M HERE BECAUSE *I* WANT TO BE HERE."

Why, Tina, why do you want to be here? Please explain. I'm not being
sarcastic, I really want to know.

No too bright, are ya Squid. OBVIOUSLY they didnt spell their name the same as
me, since AOL only allows one person to have the EXACT same spelling. But it
was close enough for a TOS violation and it was reported.

AOL is nothing more then a BBS with limited access to the "Internet"

If your on AOL your NOT on the internet. You have access to it but the
AOL stuff is just for them fools that can't or won't learn the real

Question for you Tina...............

Do you make as many friends as you have from the M&B News group in the
Barry news group??? Or do you show your other face in there?

I probably have more here.
AGAIN FOR THE READING IMPAIRED. I DO NOT GO TO NEWSGROUPS TO MAKE FRIENDS. I GO
TO NEWSGROUPS WHERE THE SUBJECT IS SOMETHING THAT I HAVE OF INTEREST.

Any other questions?

[Tinas49ers]

>Or do you show your other face in there?

By show my face do you mean post? If yes, yes I post there all the time, when I
have something to say. Do a google search if you doubt me.

[Jesse Turner]

another part about her reply is that although the monitor(ok the real term
is host so from now on im using the right term) can "say" that action will
be taken. the host has no idea what acutally occurs. they never ever get a
report back that action was taken. once the report is sent to the "higher
ups" thats the last the host hears of it. that is meant to keep the host
from being biased to the person who was reported. The host has no idea if
the report was wranted or not. evey time a host goes back to their message
board, chat room, forum. they go in with what AOL calls " smiles from the
hands down". They MUST treat even the chronically mean equally with the
others.

so although she thinks action was taken, chances are it wasnt, secondly the
hosts are trained to give the members a report to make them feel like
everything is in control. that terrorism will no longer return, which is
probably what the comment was meant to imply. what probably happened if
anything at the worst was that the screenname was blocked and no other
action taken. This is the same action taken when someone has an offending
screenname. Believe it or not there are several screennames that are
filtered and not allowed. Im sure Osama Bin Laden@ aol.com was blocked
instantly.... When i was a host i busted a guy for having the screenname
Biatch @ aol.com . I have no idea if the report created action however.

However, it is a dumbass from here. Or are you trying to have me believe that
somebody just happened to pop in here trying to imitate me? Yeah, that makes
sense....and you guys think *I'M* clueless. Look at your own. Squid thinks a
complete stranger came in here pretending to be me. That is so laughable,

prove the tos violation....

100% doubtful you can. all you can say is "yes they sent a reply stating aol

Seems to me you really don't even know yourself WHY you come to this
place at all. You don't seem to have much of a sense of humor much less
any sense. Otherwise you would answer the questions put to you instead
of trying to say " Ask Bret, Ask Troy, Ask whoever " You need to really
seek professional help Tina and I mean that in a good way.
