Nah. Bertie is so totally blinded by the need to slam you, that he will
say anything about every subject to throw a dig your way.

Not that I am saying that your observation is totally wrong, either.

In any case, I still say if we were to totally ignore two people and their
sock puppets (they are really not that hard to pick out) on every subject,
and every post, and every follow-up to their posts, we would soon be rid
of them, and their destruction of this newsgroup.

I fear that will never happen. It seems there are too many people
stroking their egos, with their need to sound knowledgeable about the
thread of the moment.

If you can't see by now, that silence will solve nothing, then you must be
totally blind.

1) There is a never ending stream of new people that will always waste weeks
if not months feeding them, before the understand the problem.

2) They just sock puppet and talk to themselves.

When you find a way to solve these two facts, then let's talk about ignoring
them.

Wake up guys.

Ever heard of Flight service, fjukkwit?


Bertie

Ever try to raise flight service on a busy day when CB's are popping
up all around? Beyond that, when you're a thousand miles from home
and the FSS is calling out weather boundaries using landmarks you've
never heard of, it is pretty hard to visualize what in the heck they
are talking about.

Kyle, you're wasting your breath. Until you (and others) stop
treating this "Bertie" like a pilot (as if "he" would have any clue
what flight service is), he will continue to grace this group with
his brilliant "fjukkwit" commentary. Ignore him (as do most of us)
and this troll-of-trolls will ultimately go away...

Bull****, Bertie isn't a troll, he's too stupid. Mx is the troll,
Bertie is just the functional equivalent of a 2 year old, running
around hitting people on the toe with a hammer, because they won't
stoop to his level and play with him.


Not so, you play with me all the time.

Jay, If "Bertie" isn't a pilot, he's doing one hell of a job faking
it.

Agreed. However, every now and then he drops clear hints of his real
situation -- like the comment about using flight service.

Real pilots know how utterly useless an in-air weather briefing can
be on a long cross-country flight, when FSS starts blathering on
about "strong thunderstorms located 56 miles on the 223 radial from
Clusterfunk VOR" -- as you're frantically trying to find
"Clusterfunk" on one of your sectional maps that are strewn around
the cockpit. And that's the best-case scenario -- often you can't
even get through to them.

Compare this with the incredible utility of having Nexrad radar, with
a satellite overlay, displaying "live" (well, okay, 4 to 9 minutes
old) in the cockpit, showing you precisely what the weather is doing
ahead, and it's easy to spot a pretender.

Only someone who has never actually walked the walk would talk such
nonsense.

Yep! He steps on his ****** all the time.


Steps on his ******?

Bwawhahwhahwhahwhawhahwhahwhahwhahwh!

God you're a fjukkktard.

But ironically, you are quite correct.

You being the object of that statement, of course.



Yep! He steps on his ****** all the time. Just no one wants to call
bull**** on him, for fear he will dedicate the rest of his (tiny) life
to ****ing on every thread the start, or attempt to join.




Nope, not so. I only call those who are worthy of being elevated to
k00kdom.

Like you, for instance.

God I love usenet.

Why would I bother when I have you?

Unless you're confessing to actually being one of my sockpuppets, of
course.

Don't forget to include yourself in volume 7 maxie...

If YOU can't see that silence, and informing new people via back channels,
(or one time in a post) as to the situation, then you must be blind.

It HAS worked before.

Remember the Bass wars?

Hint: Seem him around lately?

Wake up, indeed.

Mx on the other hand lures them in by the dozens. Let's them waste hours
trying to explain (and argue with each other) the most simple concepts,
and then spanks them for being stupid enough to answer him.

You're right, of course, but I'll still take ten MXs for every one "Bertie".
At least MX is entertaining (and occasionally starts some VERY interesting,
on-topic threads) while "Bertie" is just an embarrassment.

I don't think it is a given that we have to make a choice of one or the
other.

IMO, both suck, just they suck in different ways.

Well. I may be raising some questions about MY pilot status here. But
I've been surviving in the air for a long time (35 years next month)
using FSS for my weather info and I've never found it to be all that
much of a problem finding those storms out 56 m on the "Clusterfunk"
223 rad. Though I'll have to admit that the small print on a sectional
seems to be getting smaller every year.

Compare this with the incredible utility of having Nexrad radar, with
a satellite overlay, displaying "live" (well, okay, 4 to 9 minutes
old) in the cockpit, showing you precisely what the weather is doing
ahead, and it's easy to spot a pretender.

I can certainly understand the convenience of a live display.
I don't have it and I've never even seen it in action, but I could
find a use for it.
I'll probably have it, someday, but I've always had a tendency to buy
a generation or two below "state of the art". And, only then, when I
NEED to replace something.
Yea, I'm a cheap SOB.
Maybe I'll make you an offer on yours when you upgrade.


Yeah, these toys are all fine things.

Using them in ignorance is not.


Only someone who has never actually walked the walk would talk such
nonsense.

Well, my first "calculator" was a slide rule.So I have a bit of a
higher comfort level with low tech than you kids. I grew up before the
"instant gratification" generation came along.

And I'd still wager that "Bertie" knows his way around an airplane.


I even know how to find the coffee urn.
