Do you know how many people are electocuted
by keyboards per year, and they have germs
like flesh eating disease, so now I wear a condom
while using the computer...can't be too careful...
these days.

You mean you can reach the keyboard with it???? I'm duly
impressed!!!!!! :-)))

Well when posting to this group I use a palm *pilot*,
it's a RIM job with blackberries.

On the other hand, if the instructor fails to instill whatever
"personality" change is needed during the time of exposure with the
student, the student will become the "driver" we are discussing.

Hey - how did this on-topic subthread get in this thread!? I demand a
refund!

Anyway, you are probably correct, but I'm always a little suspicious of
anything that suggests changing of "personality". Sounds like a mistake
some people make when they get married. ;-)

I have to agree "personality" is a **** poor choice of words.

"Attitude towards learning" is the shortest I can think of that might
be more appropriate.

Dudley is going to be spewing a lot of bull**** now. He's obviously only
here to make noise.

Nonsense. You have obviously returned only to add more noise and confusion
than your cohort Bertie.

Most people tolerate moderation very poorly, but they love to see other people
with whom they disagree being silenced. Many people will choose a venue in
which they know that the allowed opinions match their own; that way anyone who
disagrees with them will be "moderated," and those who agree with them will be
left unmolested.

The problem is that many discussion venues stagnate, since nobody is willing
to discuss anything on which there might be a difference of opinion. The only
things people will discuss are the things about which they all agree already.
It gets pretty boring after a while.

I do not actually disagree with people on this NG any more than I do
with people on the AOPA forum (though being new to aviation, I do not
have many strong opinions yet). What I get from the moderated groups
is a much higher signal to noise ratio, as overly personal attacks are
avoided. I think that because people know they will be blocked if they
post some asinine attack, it forces them to put some actual content
into their posts.

What's truly ironic, Anthony, is that I have never read anything you've
posted that would result in you being censored on Pilots of America. You
may not know what you're talking about, but ignorance is not an offense on
PofA. As long as conversation is kept in a civil tongue anyone can post
there, unimpeded.

On the flipside, many of the people who blast you to kingdom-come every day
would be instantly removed from PofA for their rudeness and personal
attacks. If anyone would benefit from a moderated group, it would be you.

Yet, you stay here. I can only conclude that you enjoy abuse...

Nah, that's not it. I conclude he enjoys the affect he has on some people
and what it drives them to do and say.

Hmmm....good point. I must confess, it *is* kind of funny/pathetic to watch
how effortlessly he can jerk around pilots who are otherwise (apparently)
logical, even-tempered folks...

Looks like we have a winner!

Anthony is NOT here to talk aviation.

Back in high school, when we wanted to bed Mary Jane Rottencrotch, we didn't
just walk up and say hey, wanna screw?

Neither does Mx. It that respect, he does prove himself much smarter than
many of the "pilots" here, everyday. Are you listening Dudley?
