If anyone posting a message in this or any other newsgroup is "hiding"
their true identities by using a fictious or non-existent email address, it
is most likely because they very wisely choose not to have their inbox
flooded with unwanted spam - NOT because they are "losers".
Grow up Bryant, for chrissakes.

I don't but it. I've had this address on Usenet for over a decade. I'm not
buried in spam. It's a covenient excuse for people that don't want to stand
behind what they choose to say.

I think your choice of an anonymous screen name clearly tells a lot about what
type of person you are.

That's right, Bryant - I am obviously just a happy,carefree kind of
guy who likes to have a little harmless fun once in awhile at no one's
expense but my own. Hence my amusingly ficticious identity. It is as
simple as that - no more, no less. Why are you so judgmental as to
misconstrue mere levity for a telling indication of my character?
Precisely, what is it that compels you to decipher hidden meanings in
a simple anonymous screen name that does not meet your puritanical
standards of acceptability, then second guess my intentions by
responding flippantly with innuendo and character assassination?
Perhaps a bit of introspective meditation would do you well.
I fail to comprehend exactly how you have gained such notoriety in
this newsgroup as a skillful master of debate. In a debate,it is
commonly known that the point where a party resorts to name calling is
the point where that person has lost the debate. You, Bryant, the
master debater that you reputedly are, do not even "resort" to name
calling; it is the brilliant centerpiece of your modus operandi. It
seems you are simply unable to post anything whatsoever that does not
include it.
Your reputation is an unearned and undeserved gift.
I will wrap this up on a positive note, for fairness' sake. You are
quite expert on the subject of shortwave radio, and you do unselfishly
offer what you know to others who ask for help. I proudly admit that I
hold you in esteem in that regard, and that I have personally
benefited from your sage advice on more than one occasion. For that,
you have my sincere thanks.

-Happy New Year and God bless you all-

Come on, dude. Give me a break. The screenname you were using was:
"Uncle Jizzie" .

That's just humor and I'm the one being offensive? Wow.

Perhaps a bit of introspective meditation would do you well.

Gee, I think you generally overestimate the opinion others hold of me! ;-)

In a debate,it is
commonly known that the point where a party resorts to name calling is
the point where that person has lost the debate.

Maybe in public political debates. In academic intercollegiate debate humorous
name-calling is used for entertainment value. Have you ever heard parliamentary
debate in the UK or Canada?

Please notice your inconsistency. I'm supposed to cut you room to be humorous
with your screenname, but if I use the style of rhetoric commonly employed by
conservative "entertainers," like Rush, I am destroying public debate. Dude,
I'm just having a good time. I don't think anyone in the NG is a true "moron",
though some of their opinions are a bit moronic. I make no real claim to be a
better debater than anyone on USENET. I just like to debate and to express
myself in a sarcastically humorous mode. Many people tell me that they kick out
of it, but those I argue with seldom are that gracious.

You, Bryant, the
master debater that you reputedly are, do not even "resort" to name
calling; it is the brilliant centerpiece of your modus operandi. It
seems you are simply unable to post anything whatsoever that does not
include it.
Your reputation is an unearned and undeserved gift.

But I don't really use obscenity or threats. I'm not trying to forge a
consensus, win over any conservatives, or run for office. I just dig expressing
myself the way I choose. Granted, I clearly undermine my own credibility with
my excesses. But, I have fun. And, hopefully, force others to be a bit more
consistent with their own ideas.

I will wrap this up on a positive note, for fairness' sake. You are
quite expert on the subject of shortwave radio, and you do unselfishly

benefited from your sage advice on more than one occasion. For that,

Why, thank you. You seem like a pretty genuine person. I'm truly sorry if I
offended you. I wish I could contribute more loggings, but work, poor
propagation, and incredible local RFI are all making the hobby a bit less
productive for me. I have noticed a number of very useful posts from you, too.

-Happy New Year and God bless you all-



Same to you, UJ. Have a good year!

Bryant

Michael, you are alright(for a liberal that is ;-) ).
Too bad you haven't been able lately to enjoy the hobby as much as you
would like. I hope that situation changes favourably for you in '04.
Peace and good will, amigo.
