Bertie becomes Episcopalian

I personally reccomend that anyone disgusted with Bertie send trash to
rec.aviation.piloting and rec.aviation.homebuilt.


Gee, how mature of you.

Back when the pilot's groups created Bertie to fend of Livingston the Bunyip
had a legitimate existance, but today his only purpose is trashing any
functioning newsgroup. This might be fun for those pilot's groups, right up
until things go right back to the way they were when Ralphie ran a dozen
sock puppets.

Bertie and Livingston were going after each other in AAS and AAD for years
before anyone in the rec.av groups heard of them.

Not true. Ralphie infested rec.aviation for ages before AAS was even
created (and intended to be his personal sandbox). The earliest appearance
I have found by Bertie was May 12, 1998. His fingers were around Ralphie's
throat from the very beginning, of course. But from the beginning those
flamewars were crossposted to rec.aviation.military and rec.aviation.misc,
where Ralphie liked to play the bigshot. His first appearance in
rec.aviation.homebuilt was June 28, 1998, as part of the campaign to shun
the Basshole. Bertie and Ralphie were joined in their battles in RAH
throughout the fall of 1998 by numerous regulars here. Highflyer, Bob U.,
Tony P., Jerry Springer, and many others engaged in them. And of course
Tarver was busy adding his own bit of insanity to the mix.

I take some interest in this because from the very beginning I was accused
(falsely) of being Bertie. All of the above can be confirmed by a stroll
through google.
