To be fair Lawrence, that was the implication of your post. -- Col Bolton, Lancashire 160m asl Snow videos: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3QvmL4UWBmHFMKWiwYm_gg Come on Col I say many things that are tongue in cheek and seriously piling high electric fans that didn't sell based on a BBQ forecast wouldn't necessarily cause bankruptcy but it would be a blow. Get it? |

"Malcolm" wrote in message ... Lawrence Jenkins writes As your sock puppet master would say.. "idiot". More crap from the crapmeister. I don't have a "sock puppet master". ============================== The underlying problem is that he (Lawrence Jenkins) clearly doesn't have a clue as to the meaning of the term, which he obviously picked up at the Humpty Dumpty School of Etymology. It's rather like a toddler picking up on a dirty word for the first time and can't then resist blurting it out at every opportunity, oblivious to its irrelevance. I agree - Col is being much too kind, but kindness is a rare commodity in these parts and perhaps to be encouraged. Hey you can call me Larry, what's your name big boy? |

... Hey you can call me Larry, what's your name big boy? =========================================== Sorry, I would appear not to have a sig set up in this current Win8 iteration of simple-minded piece of software called Windows Live Mail 2012! It seems to think I'm called 'General'. But several on here know me, at least in a business connection. There's nothing hidden or anonymised and the email address is real so it would be a trivial exercise to find out the details! |

I don't like to pry but I think it does devalue greatly a persons point of view or comments if that hide behind a fake person; I mean the GENERAL, I ask you. |

It's just coming from an account that's associated with a postmaster account called general@etc on the mail server here. Somewhere along the line the super-clever news protocol seems to truncate this simply to 'general'. (Wouldn't have this problem with a proper web forum.) If I'm posting here about less trivial matters, you'll probably find a sig was added manually - I refer you to those posts. |

Okay 'general' please bear with me and those that don't see what I don't see and write your frigging name FFS, Is it that bloody hard? |
