This is one of your poorest troll attempts, Anthony, you are a
disappointment. Please try to do better.

Do you folks that continue to respond to Mxsmanic, Bertie, Maxwell, and the
other trolls realize that if you had simply ignored them this would still be
a useful forum?


It would also be a useful forum if people actually answered the
questions posed, regardless of *who* is asking it. The OP's question
is perefectly valid, and x number of years from now when somebody
Google's for the answer and gets this thread, all they will see for an
answer are insults. There is nothing more frustrating than
Googling for an anwer to something only to find the response was "why
don't you Google for it". If you have the time to post such a
response, you have the time to answer the question.


You must be new here. Somebody will answer Anthony's question and then
he will tell them they are wrong and say he has studied the issue in
depth and that just because the person that answered the question is a
pilot does not mean that they know anything about weather or how the
information is collected.

And to top it all off the fact that I have posted the above in no way
lowers the chances of Anthony doing exactly what I've said he would do.

oh god shut up. I've been frankly answering his questions for a while
now and I've yet to see him respond to me in that manner, or to other
people in that manner either. If it bothers you so much why don't you
just not read this place anymore? There are tons of people that post
here that I don't like. I cope with it by *gasp* ignoring them. Its
not as hard as it sounds.

You must not have kids, or if you do, they are brats.

All kids occasionally need to be ignored when they exibit undesirable
behavior, and rewarded for correct behavior. That is MX. He never exibits
desireable behavior, when the big picture has been taken into account. What
he has done is drive off posters by the droves.

I still do not understand how anyone with a brain can think that his
presence here is desireable, or why they would answer any post of his for
any reason.

What, praytell, exactly do you find "undesirable" about posting an on-
topic question to a newsgroup?

The only thing "undesirable" about mxsmanic's postings are the idiots
like you who come out of the woodwork to help **** up this place more
than it already is.

Or maybe I'm just not emotionally fragile enough to cry over the

If this is an example of your skills when it observational skills then I
really am concerned about your ability to act as a CFI.

If it bothers you so much why don't you
just not read this place anymore? There are tons of people that post
here that I don't like. I cope with it by *gasp* ignoring them. Its
not as hard as it sounds.


So feel free to add me to your ignore list.
