You sure are fixated on "safe".


Yes, and that's a very healthy fixation in aviation.

Do you know how many people are electocuted
by keyboards per year ...


No, I don't. How many?

Since keyboards operate at extremely low voltages, usually an operator
endangers a keyboard more than a keyboard endangers an operator.

I'm impatient with stupidity; my people have learned to live without it.

Injustice and cruelty tend to irritate me (although that is closely linked to
the above).

What if you get your Dick caught in your zipper when you are late for
a meeting and the boss is right next to your urinal while you writhe in
agony??


That has not occurred to me.

It takes a real man to not get ****ed at that!


I don't see why it would make anyone angry; it would just be unpleasant.

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.

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?




You needed a group to make a pass at a slut?

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


Dudley isn't the problem - I have never seen Dudley respond in any
manner other than to provide an answer to a question. That's what
this NG is supposed to be about after all.

OTOH, there are dozens of posters who go back and forth with the guy
endlessly, eventually resorting to childish name calling and similar
behavior presumably out of frustration. Tell me, how does that help?



Well, for starters, your presumption is incorrect.

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.


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.



Yep, he's your sort of pilot alright.

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...


I take care to be nice and civil, but I do not engage in the kind of
mollycoddling that some people require in order to stay calm. If they
cannot stand direct, objective discussion, that's their problem, not
mine. I do not have the time or inclination to hold the hands of
people who insist on behaving like children.



You wouldn't know what direct objective discusssion was if it blew you.

But Dudley, you must admit, sometimes polishing a turd is impossible.

Either way, the responsibility lies with the instructor. The student is
the workpiece the instructor must complete.
