On Usenet, the old "ignore them" analogy usually ends up right back out here on Usenet, being laid out by someone for someone else, as nothing more than absolute proof that the analogy doesn't work in the first place. :-) No my friend....unfortunately it's man's basic flaws and individual personalities that will determine how communication is carried out on Usenet, not the old "ignore um" analogy. But it sounds good anyway :-))))) Dudley Henriques Dudley, When you use the word "analogy" do you mean, like, "rule of thumb" or "method"? Just asking. -- Saville Sorry. I can't imagine... Don't sell yourself short, Dudley; you've exhibited a vibrant and highly creative imagination. .....you "just asking" me anything, Believe me...setups utterly unecessary. Sorry, your post has nothing to do with aviation. Neither did your response to my question (my question did have something to do with aviation). -- Saville Well then, as of THIS post, consider anything written by me to you as whatever you wish it to be. Starting today; new game! NEW *game*? Fascinating.... Well that's good because you've replied to dozens of non-aviation entries, with non-aviation replies, especially just in the last few days. So we know you, in fact, have no problem replying to non-aviation threads, in reality. .................and your question or statement concerning flying is............................? It's a question about a flying statement you made: You wrote (you can see it above): The first thing you learn in flying is NEVER to put much faith in general analogies. They don't work for various reasons. I want to understand what you mean by the word "analogies" when used in this statement about flying. My question was and is: When you use the word "analogy" do you mean, like, "rule of thumb" or "method"? Or did you really mean the "A is to B as B is to C" sort of thing? And, clearly, I mean the specific use of the word above, as regards to flying. -- Saville Replicas of 15th-19th century nautical navigational instruments: http://home.comcast.net/~saville/backstaffhome.html Restoration of my 82 year old Herreshoff S-Boat sailboat: http://home.comcast.net/~saville/SBOATrestore.htm Steambending FAQ with photos: http://home.comcast.net/~saville/Steambend.htm |
