But whatever. At this point we all covered in mod from wrestling with
this pig.


Moreover, by not ignoring him, you have indicated to him that you are
'game' to be 'played'. He will be back, again and again. He has posted
several nonsense antenna idea on uk.r.a in the past, expect to see then
on here. No doubt he is cooking up others right now. Plus, he will
'recycle' the ones he uses from time to time, in the hope of stimulating
another pointless thread. I lost track of how many times how many times
his Big K nonsense was recycled, before he claim to have realised that
his K was a constant in the accepted maths. (It didn't 'tie up' with his
nonsense, needless to say, but that simply led to more nonsense.)

I don't understand why you label this thread as pointless as it has
stirred technical discussion that has evolved into an interesting thread
that I, for one, have learnt from and enjoyed reading. It would seem to
have been something that everybody had an opinion of but nobody dared to
mention. Seems that certain beliefs from various people were wrong, so
what? We all gain.

He frequents several groups and does the same thing in them.

The best thing is just to totally ignore him.

He will still post, still rant and rave, but you won't waste your time.

He has nothing better to do, the rest of us have.

It seems to me that he is between a rock and a hard place. You say that
your desire is for more technical postings on usenet but when one is
presented, you immediately try to shoot the messenger rather than
offering any useful input yourself!

I think the problem is that instead of participating in a rational
discussion, regardless of who started it, the one in question just spews
nonsense.

Brian is right when he says some here have nothing better to do.

I think you have said that to Gareth, but have continued to debate the
subject with others and it does not seem that you were doing this under
duress. It would seem that you have enjoyed participating in the
discussion. I have enjoyed your considerable input along with that from
the other contributors. Should Gareth be criticised for starting
interesting threads in a quiet newsgroup? I think not.

That is saying that you and the other contributors had nothing better to
do ;-)

Steve supports Evans no matter what, he is another troll.

In fact I would support anybody who asked a technical question and then
got roasted, even you.

I am happy to let the readership decide who is the troll here, Brian!

Once again, it is you who creates the cesspits about which you complain.
