Could you tell me where I can save the name I use? I go to
newsgroups-properties and type my name but it doesn't save it if I alter the
name for another newsgroup.

I don't think there's a way to actually save it in Outlook Express (most
people use the same name for all the newsgroups they read) - but how about
creating a text file (use Notepad) with it in, and then just copy/pasting
(CtrlC/CrtlV) it in when you change back to the name you use here? That way
it would be the same every time.
Hope that helps - let me know if it didn't make any sense to you!

I see no indication she does it for that reason, unike say `margali'
who did and earned a place in my killfile for doing so.
`Mrs B' seems to be just someone who wants to do things with her
newsreader which she can't do properly. As the `Subject:' line points
out, she's not hard to get rid of if you really care.

I don't buy it. I generally agree with "don't ascribe anything to
malice that can be explained by stupidity;" however this has been
going on too long (as per complaints about it) and she has only just
answered the issue with the "How do I do this?" post, if you believe
it, which apparently you do.

If she can manage to log in and use the same password each time, how
difficult could it be to type in the same letters in the identity
field when she uses the newsreader?

Why would she have to type in a password every time?
Besides, the computer tells you hwne the password is wrong.

Good. Then why would she have to type in her name every time she uses
the newsreader? If she can figure out how to use her newsreader well
enough to post abundantly, she can figure out how to enter her
identity where it is stored, generally they ask you when you install
them and one does not subsequently change it.
If she can't figure that out and has such a time remembering who she
is, all she has to do is tattoo it on the palm of her hand and it's
right there when she wants it.

Sheryl has been complaining about this for a while now. If you let
her killfile you you will be invisible to her and anyone else you
annoy, for whatever reason. They will be happy, you will be happy,
the rest of us will be happy because both of you are happy. Happy,

A suggestion: if you have any friends who are adept with software,
ask them to set up a separate newsreader for each of your secret
identities.

Perhaps the rest of the quote gives the answer;
"Never ascribe to malice those things which may be explained by
stupidity. That is an important phrase, and a necessary one; it keeps
people from being paranoid. However, it has a serious flaw of which most
people are unaware; it means that those who are both evil and clever
need only mask their malice in a thin veil of apparent stupidity in
order for that malice to go undetected. " ...Robert Canup

I am on aol, and am not green and don't have 3 eyes. I know that we have a bad
reputation, probably just because there are more of us, so, hence, more trolls.
One can become used to a provider, and one's main contacts get used to you with
your screenname. I've considered switching isp's, but I'm so used to this, and
people can reach me......I mean, like family and friends.....So, it's aol for
me.....it works for me now.
And, our Mrs. Beeton can join me here. It's not as if I fear her or anything,
and she is not out to ruin my life, as I know it. By the way, what's your first
name, Mrs. B?
All of us on aol can be put in a corner by some. It can be so silly, this
snobbishness. All I know is that when I signed up for the 100 free hours on
aol a couple of years ago, I didn't know that it would be such a long, strange

Most important hing I did when I stopped working for the University
was to get an email address I could control myself. Not going to post
it here though, you know how it is with spam. :-(
Anyway, it may be worth looking around for that kind of thing. I've
been thinking about getting a phone number I could do the same thing
with. I've seen discussions of that but no one has tried to sell one

Those aren't inane questions at all. Now, if you posted a couple dozen

I don't think anyone's knickers are in a twist ... that would be
vastly overstating how much people care about this person with the
everchanging name. I do feel badly that people go out of their way
to answer questions when the person asking couldn't care less about
the answer. As I said, maybe at least someone else will learn
something they wondered about.

I have an early tape of hers, a Thanksgiving show. She was still
married. He was the most miserable looking man I've seen in a long
time. He wanted to be anywhere but there ... and I gather that
anywhere was with some other woman.
Having said that, I wouldn't want to be Martha's friend, and you can
bet your last dollar I wouldn't want to work for her, but the same
can be said for a lot of very successful men. I love my sil, but she
overmanages her staff. She's a perfectionist extroadinaire. She
doesn't own a multimillion dollar business because she's shy and
retiring. Good for her. But I wouldn't want to work for her.
I think Martha takes way too much flack. Particularly insulting is
the assertion that she makes women feel inferior that they don't
maintain the perfect facade. Hello, I think we're a little stronger
than that. My ego is not wrapped up in 'should I use the burgundy
ribbon or the brocade?' No one I know is like that.
Also, I haven't watch many of her shows, but she seems as though
she often mentions her staff and that they did the work. I saw the
guy that stripped some chairs, she brought him on camera. I saw her
new offices, she showed rooms full of staff. Not very happy looking
staff, but staff nonetheless.
As I said, I don't think she deserves all the criticism. She's a
businesswoman. Good for her.

I wasn't being critical, my point was, she would never be *forced*

(which I strongly doubt). I have 4 different ISPs. AOL is one of
them. I keep it on the 4.95/5 hours a month plan. My young niece
uses AOL and I keep it to send emails back and forth with her.
She hasn't quite grasped the @ISP.Whatever concept yet but she's

AOLers have climbed the ladder one notch from the bottom. Web

I don't care what ISP a person uses as long as they contribute in

Karlie, take some time and study the evolution of Usenet. Before
AOL invaded Usenet back in the 80s and early 90s, Usenet was a
safe haven full of educational and informative information. Then
AOL inundated Usenet with the "me toos", trolling and various
Netiquette faux paux. You can't blame the old school for being
resentful of these snide, obnoxious invaders with ignorance
dripping from the fingertips.

I noticed you selectively snipped Beetoffs unintelligible sentence
that I quoted. I seriously doubt even Brits could understand what
the hell she was babbling about. Care to explain it since you
appear to be able to make perfect sense out of it? I've read many
UK authors and have yet to see a sentence such as that one put
together. The questions you asked were perfectly understandable
and easily addressed. Now, I ask you again, decipher Beetoffs
sentence. TIA.

This isn't about men vs women. This is about a creature named
Martha Stewart. Leona Helmsley is another, very comparable,

Hi Nancy! <waving>
Wanna hear my personal theory? I paid a visit to the cookerybook.com
website the other day, just to see what it was all about. They call
themselves, "The International Cookbook of the Net." They are set up to
run discussion forums, and state that, if the answers can't be found in the
forums, a person can ask their librarian. My theory, right or wrong, is
that Mrs. B. may just be that librarian, and is trying to learn as much
about other cultures' cooking as possible. That would certainly explain
the prolific questioning.
Regarding her changing names, depending on which newsgroup she's in, my
theory, again, is that she's probably doing what I just did with my user
name. Cooking newsgroup, cooking-related name. In a medical newsgroup,
you might see her using Marie Curie as a nick. And so on. Just my theory.
I haven't always used Damsel in other groups I've posted to, sometimes
choosing nicks that are more appropriate to the particular group.
Is she a troll? I don't know. These days, I try to keep an open mind
about such things. But I think I'm gonna try one or two of her recipes.
There are a lot of legitimate, regular posters of whom I can't say the
same. Anyway, I don't own any knickers, so I think I'm safe for now.

I had a question about my car, it was making a noise and I wanted to
know for sure what it was before I brought my car in. I went to the
Nissan group and said, Hi, I need help, I feel funny asking because
I can't help you. Here's the noise, I think it's this, is that right?
I not only got a yes, but a yes and this is why you shouldn't put off
the repair.
I didn't change my name to Nancy Nissan, and I didn't play games.

Exactly. I'm a businesswomen, so I don't criticize that part of her. What I
do criticize (and she does do this) is the perfectionist attitudes she spews
forth to women. I no longer do, but I used to work with a woman who was an
M. Stewart devotee, and it was almost to the point of fanaticism. Stewart
has no understanding that real women may not have time to help birth a calf,
raise it to a cow, milk it, separate the milk and churn the milk into
butter. The goals she sets for women are outrageously ridiculous, and yes,
there is a bit of guilt in her message if her followers are not as
wonderfully creative as she.

But she's changed her name several times in this newsgroup alone. It's
common practice for trolls. She's trying to get people in a snit and it's
working, with all this attention being drawn to her.

OK, so either you lead a, shall we say, interesting, life OR the word
"knickers" means something different in the US to what it means in
Australia. Here, if you're talking about knickers you're talking about
undies, that is underpants.

My understanding of knickers is that they are loose pants that end below
the knee. with a button cuff below said knee. I am currently wearing
underwear.

In the US, knickers generally refer to a old-fashioned type of pants,
which are gathered at the knees. No one wears them anymore, there
being more fashionable alternatives, so using the term adds a bit of
quaintness to the phrase.
Now, is that what you're wearing? ;>

Hmmm... Well, IMO Julia Child can still run circles around Martha
Stewart in the kitchen and she does it without touring her
multiple homes, perfectly adorned kitchens and telling her public
this kitchen tool (worth hundreds) is an absolute must for every
kitchen. I watch Martha Stewart, occasionally, for entertainment,
as I did Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker. Absolutely hilarious and
completely unbelievable.
I'll never forget the show Martha was showing her kitchen at one
of her country homes. She opened a gadget drawer, perfectly
organized with everything in it's place. She proceeded to explain
the exact dullness when particular gadgets had to be replaced
<huge eyeroll>, like anyone gives a crap. She needs to stay in the
kitchen and cook without all of the pretense.

Ah hah!! That explains it. Here, the term "knickers" is actually commonly
used to just refer to any underpants at all. There's actually a brand of
underpants (used to be anyway, don't know if they're still around) called
"NoKnickers" - supposedly so comfortable you'd swear you weren't wearing any
at all <g>.

I had a great-aunt who wore what we called bloomers. She visited rarely but
her bloomers were a great source of amusement to us kids. Hers had elastic
not buttons (at the bottom anyway, we never saw the tops) and, if memory
serves, reached below her knees. Knees weren't funny but bloomers were
hilarious. So were knickers. One of those cultural Brit things. You had to
have been there.
I don't mind Mrs. B. either. She might be a troll but that doesn't bother
me. She's certainly created lots of traffic so has sucked us all in if she
is and she faced off against Sheldon extremely well.
I subscribe to the Ann Landers school. Back in the sixties and seventies the
Yalies taunted her mercilessly. She always took them seriously and responded
accordingly. She admitted that she never really knew. If Mrs. B. is
trolling and is taken seriously, chances are that someone will benefit from
the response.

Yes, Damsel's told me what she knows as "knickers". See, here the term
knickers just means undies in general, really. Some people say undies, some
say knickers, some say both - interchangeable.
>
> Now, is that what you're wearing? ;>
What makes you assume I'm wearing any <g>.
No, my undies do not come down to my knees <g>, nor would I consider them
old fashioned. In fact, if I remember correctly (this morning was a long
time ago, you know) they're a rather nifty pair of purple ones. Now, should
I change the header to "What colour are your undies?" - might go well with
"should all your pans match" and "what do your dishes look like" <vbeg>.
And on topic, too - I mean most of us wear undies while cooking, don't
we???? <g> Hey, someone mentioned colour coordinating their pans to match
their outfit - does that include undies too <g>

Yep, what she said. Didn't realise the contraction wasn't as well known on
the other side of the Atlantic (nor that knickers didn't mean the same there
as it does here!). What you call knickers I would call knickerbockers.
ObFood: I have no idea why a Knickerbocker Glory (ice cream sundae type
thing) is so called. Anyone?

Know what? She is MORE offensive to me than "you-know-who" is.
Know why?
Sheldon doesn't change his identity every other day, and with him, you know
what you're gonna get, like it or not. He is true and consistent in how
portrays himself.
Mrs. B? Doesn't use "her" real name, changes her address with the frequency
most people change their panties, and probably isn't even a Brit. Might not
even be a woman.
I'll take Sheldon--hell, I'd even take BRAD, over Mrs. B, anyday. At least Brad
is consistent. I might not like him, but I haven't killfiled him, either.

Of course, Michael. If there was some guy on TV telling me how wonderful it
would be if I would make 500 roses out of crepe paper for my sister's
wedding, because she did it for her sister, I would be objecting just as
much.

Glad you were just joking, but the way you posted my name ("Nancree wrote":)
makes it look as though I made the rude remark to Karlie ("Karlie, we don't
like new people here.".etc.)
I didn't . I wrote in support of Karlie.

I didn't snip my name, someone else did, and my trademark nancy is still
in the post. Karlie knows it was a joke, and who made it.

I was giving a brief history lesson which you obviously did not

in it.

OBFood: This is the quickie mayo. It's easy and good.
{{Mayonnaise}} Makes 1 cup
1 egg size "large" or larger
1 1/2-2 Tbsp lemon juice (or vinegar)
1 cup oil
Place the egg and lemon juice (or vinegar) in a blender. Blend at
a high speed until the mixture starts to lose some of its yellow
color and become a bit whiter.
Pour the oil in slowly (in a constant stream over the course of
about half a minute). Keep the lid on the blender as you do this
(just lift the corner to pour in the oil), or else it will spatter
everywhere.

You may already have this one. I pulled it off of google but have
yet to make it.
Curry Parsnip Soup
You Need:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion
1 tablespoon curry paste (red or green)
4 medium parsnips (peel and cube)
2 cups vegetable stock
1 cup water
1/2 cup natural yoghurt
Method:
Heat oil in a saucepan, add onions and curry paste...mix
thoroughly, cook until soft. Add parsnip coat in curry mix, then
add stock and water and cook for 20 minutes.
Once cooked, puree in a blender, return to the saucepan and stir
in yoghurt...reheat soup, serve with some crusty bread and butter.
Note: be careful not to boil soup when reheating, as yoghurt will
curdle.

Well that may very well be true and she may need to move to HGTV
instead because the name of the show is Martha Stewart's Kitchen.
Granted, the name of the show is broad but lets stick to food. I
don't care about her floral arrangements, I can figure that out on
my own.

The contraction is not in question. It's the entire sentence and
particularly the "you've all" part. Let me draw a picture. "You
have all joined in" Who is all?
