I'm glad for your amusement, but do you think your amusement

is
worth
the dismantling of one of the (previously) most useful forums

on
aviation, by aviators?

If you think that it is worth it, then you have too high of a
value
placed on your own entertainment.

Ignoring him is not sufficient. His departure is the only

thing
that
is sufficient.

I took a 12 month vacation from RAP. He still didn't leave.

When
I
came back most of the posts I saw were MX, followed by bertie,
followed by Max, followed by bertie - max - bertie - max - - -

-
-

I'm trying to figure out how to set up my own nntp server,

with
my
own
rules. Once I've got it up and running the way I want, I'll
publish
the address.

Here's a preview:

You'll never see a post by MX, Bertie, or Max, nor will you

ever
see
a
response to them.
You'll also never see a post by a spammer, unless a known

poster
decides to spam, or if I decide it's not really spam.


Snort.

Like that'd stop me.

This is interesting. Is the OP in question saying that they have

the
skills to fly a plane but *lack* the skills to configure a

kilfile?
If so, this is indeed troubling news and would provide a clue as

to
*why*
our skys are so unsafe today.


You're joking, of course, but in fact, you've hit the nail right

on
the
head.
Don't know about the OP, but a startling number of pilots today

are
spoon fed idiots who need a Nintendo DS in front of them to do

the
simplest flights...


They fly with the computer and not so much with the stick eh?
THey should watch 'Space Cowboys' some time. Tommy Lee Jones does

a
nice
job of landing the "flying brick" with a stick and no computer.


Mm, not so much that as flying with the compute and not their

heads!


I always thot you had to fly by "the seat of your pants".
What if your pants dont fit?


Hmm, a safety issue that possibly need sto be addrsssed.


Needless to say...scotsmen would be at a distinct disadvantage...


Well, as compensation, they would be able to utilise th ependulum effect
in it's place.
