I think it's just LOL. Possibly LingOL, but definitely NOT LOLing.
Carry on.

Jay Dawg! S'Up? I can't believe anyone would take Usenet seriously.

Believe it. I take Usenet, and this newsgroup in particular, very,
very seriously. You can't be too careful, what with all the sick
freaks, psychopaths and terrorists around these parts. I mean, it may
just be the misuse of an acroynym today, but next thing you know you
may mistakenly give out your employer's name, or home address or
something....and we've all seen where that can wind up. Stay on your
toes.

That sounds like a threat, Scotty...

Can you afford therapy? No one is marketing a reality pill yet.

Nice snip job. Let's restore the context and try your attempt at a
clever retort again, shall we:

Jeff Davis had the balls to face me and shake my hand. Unlike YOU,
coward. You didn't show up when you had the chance. Of course,

^^^^^^^^^ things would have gone a lot differently if you had, and there

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ certainly wouldn't be a civil and reasonable conversation.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^

You are insane. Get help

That sounds like a threat, Scotty...

It seems to me that it's the folks who have to snip things in order to
look clever who have the problems with reality, but YMMV.

Add a space after the dashes, Jeff, or why bother at all?

What are you winging about dashes and space for, Alan?

You mean like you. Birds of a Feather......I always thought you were a
flaming idiot with no life. Now it's been fully proven. If you get to
doing name-dropping with FF, then you are a REAL loser. Maybe you two
could get a group rate at the unemployment office.

Yes! A Name-Dropping flame! And an ad hominiem attack with no substance!
I'm going to lose sleep over this spew.

Because if you do it properly, newsreaders will automatically snip out
the signatures when you reply; which is why to have a sig delimiter in
the first place.

If you're not going to do it right, why do it at all?

Wow, dude, I didn't realize how well connected you were. I *am* impressed.

No you're not. You need the delusion of bettering yourself by the denigration
of others. It's a classic symptom of deep seated feelings of inadequacy.

It's easy to tell it's a ****ty snow year.

So now you're slamming those of us who are circumsized? Do I
detect a modicum of anti-semitism on your part?

This started when I published the fact that I'd met Scott, and you didn't
believe it. Now it's your turn to publish a retraction. You say, "I
stand corrected." Then we can all get on with this ****ty snow year.

LOL

I detect a heaping helping of deflection.

Why would I publish a retraction? I didn't believe and I still don't.

He's no dummy. Did a math trick, in his head, that truly impressed me.

Wait! He did math? In his head!? WOW! Maybe his sig should say he's
a "truly gifted mathe--matician."

Why would I do that? My strength is strategy, tactics, and operations.
My focus is on application, not theory. I'm concerned with utility.
