You behave like a 5-year-old, in particular your shouting
of insults and then running away to hide behind a kill-file.

If, indeed, you have a complaint about me and my postings
and their presence in this NG, why do you promote discussion
upon the topic? Would it not be easier to take the mature option
and just ignore me?

You didn't think your gratuitous insult through, did you?

Stupid boy!

Just ignore him (Airy) Richard ... the best thing is to kill file him
as most of us in the UK have already done. He's been posting in this
inflammatory manner for years.
By the way he is really Gareth Evans, G4SDW, of Chippenham, England.
With a name like that I guess he orginally hails from Wales, not
England so he can't really call himself an authority on the English
language!
If you follow this thread you'll see he will come back at me with one
of his highly predictable insulting phrases .. you wait!
The only time I know he's around is if others quote him in their posts
so please folks ... IGNORE HIM!

Faulty research. My references are irrefutable. Try going to the
source, it can't be more than a dozen miles.

It's very simple, no more than a dozen miles north of you. All of
maybe three turns to make to get on the road, and get off it at the
obvious source. You could have walked it by now. Using the Internet
as a research tool is all fine and well, but it hardly constitutes the
final say. Others could accomplish this I suppose, especially when
I've offered the author of the translation and the period.

Finding it on the net is neither difficult nor impossible, I just have
it simpler with a good library and the OED not 6 feet away. Not only
is it faster (consider how much time it has taken you to NOT
accomplish anything), but it would eventually be the reference used by
any link offered. ;-)

Or - you can wait until Google does it for you (news item, American
company is going to digitize the college libraries for the Brits).

Much bull**** from you, but no substantiation of your assertion.

"KB7QHC" some form of CB licence?

What are you blabbing on about?

Why not quote the Greek words that you claim
are the root of the Latin, "Antenna"?

You come across as a bull****ting CBer.

Ah C'mon. Unless this is the Special Olympics, filling in all the
blanks for you wouldn't go very far to uphold the honour of an
Englishman's command of the language. :-(

Besides, I agree with Dr. Johnson's definition of Answer-Jobbers:
"He that makes a trade of writing answers.
What disgusts me from having any thing to do with
answer-jobbers, is, that they have no conscience."

Umm, you aren't missing a copy of Johnson too, are you?

Ah! Punchinello,

How generous by over half - but by only playing to the audience ;-)

I'm sure they love the droll irony of that comparable praise costing
either the deflation of vanity by reality, or ego's insufferable
elevation against hidden desire.

Truly a classic work of trollery in challenge....

I shall stand aside for the struggles between these Tritonic minnows.
