I saw no sarcasm in Gregg's post - none at all - *and I seriously
wonder about the sarcasm in your own.


My sarcasm was deliberate. You see, Gregg, in posts to other newsgroups,
* where he was harassing other posters, used the same line, "Inquiring
minds want to know." He seems to have picked up the habit from his troll
friends as they are wont to use that line, in particular, nurk fred.

Gregg's was a reasonable
question, and it is unreasonable to expect a person to see EVERY other
post from a given individual, for a number of reasons.


It is entirely reasonable to expect a person to read ahead on a topic to
see if his "question" has been answered already. I was able to do so
with my usenet client. If Gregg cannot easily do so, then I suggest he
move from Google Groups to a more amenable usenet client. That way he
will be less prone to "sounding like a jerk".



BTW, Dave answered it appropriately too, even though I disagree with
him.

Very well - but frankly, *in this instance*, his question sounded
reasonable and credible and forthright and on-topic, very un-troll-
like, where your response did not.
