celebrities on RAP?

Roger,

t's quite common
to find them out of order


Hmm. I find that extremely rare in my newsreader.

Are you confusing him with Bruce Dickinson, the singer from Iron

In a previous article, Sylvain said:
fact that the messages/posts do not necessarily appear in the same
order on your server or on mine, and a few might not appear at all
on some server and/or not be kept there as long as on your server, etc.

Another factor: some people use newsreaders that mangle the References
header. So their posts don't show up in the correct place in the thread
tree.

Paul,

That factor we had already covered with the "decently programmed"

At one point in the past decade, Jan Michael Vincent got impaired, got
into a car crash and got SERIOUSLY messed up, to the point he nearly
died in the crash.

The local EMS responded, and he required being intubated (placing a
breathing tube in the trachea) to save his life.

Based on the premise that no good deed goes unpunished, Jan sued the EMS
because he ended up hoarse (dunno if permanent or transient)..ALIVE but
hoarse.. This is a common side effect and doesn't imply negligence on
the part of the crew, but needless to say, shows what kind of character
he has. I wonder if he considered that they could have considered him
non-salvageable.

There's a name I haven't heard in years. Whatever happened to him? He
was a hot Hollywood commodity (didn't he star in "Air Wolf"?) for a
while...

There was a guy on one newsgroup I read who consistently broke threading.
The X-Newsreader header indicated he used a newsreader that was capable of
preserving the References header, but when questioned it turns out he was
manually deleting that header (and a few others) because he didn't know
what it was for.

Well, no...didn't mean it so much that way. This is the only
group I read that I see him in, though. I don't currently read
any of the other aviation groups.

No news reader is going to put those back in order or for the ones
whos computer clock is off by a bunch.

No news reader can show you posts that haven't arrived at your news
server. But once they are all there, any competent newsreader can and will
display them in the proper threaded order, primarily by using the

Yes, come to think of it, I think my posts were still in the correct
sequence, but badly off in the time stamp. It really seemed to irk BoB, the
curmudgeon! (:-o))
