If the need is _SO_ desperate, and the destiny for greatness so
certain, it would seem senseless NOT to spend some of the venture
capital paying for competent programmers.

Any venture that plans to altogether defer paying would-be employees
seems more than a mite shifty to me...

The need is *so* desperate that they are engaging in a massive
alphaspam.

Very so.

Seems that way to me, too, especially considering their authority
DNS servers don't even know what "tizek.com" is.

And this is the Nth site to claim this, where N is significantly
larger than the number of portal sites that will ever see the light
of visiting users, much less actual ad revenue.

Besides, I'm too busy building my own premiere Internet portal for
techies and geeks alike. At least my DNS works. At least I have
an MX record.

I see, from other newsgroups, that it is so.

Unfortunately, such vast levels of desperation are suggestive that
it's a "sinking ship" long before it ever gets launched.

Sort of like a fellow I once knew called Bruno; he'd meet a girl that
somewhat interested him, and almost instantaneously launch into trying
to "offer her a ring." I don't particularly _like_ calling people
"losers," but anyone that uses the term would feel it hit the mark
with Bruno...

Speaking of alphaspamming. I saw this spam (at least, the title) on
one of the slower _classic_Atari_ newsgroups I subscribe to.

Daahhhhhhhh okay!?
