I have to admit that I don't understand the people who verbally abuse
News2020 and let fly with the profanity. Even if they think he's a troll,
they should just ignore him unless he posts something incorrect (which
might mislead others if unchallenged) about electronics (or radar/sonar or
whatever).

There are now people who are going to find you, and teach you

And the wisdom behind threats of violence against
this poor, clearly-ill, fellow is...?
He is not ill in the "mental illness" sense. He is just fabricating
a lot of garbage in order to induce us to respond, in some way. He
has nothing technical to add to this group, so he adds silly bullshit.
He likes the attention. The responses etc. You Mr. Win are easily
deceived. I guess somebody could argue he is sick anyway. Maybe he
is just a punk kid screwing around. He is bailting us, or haven't
? you brainiacs figured that out yet! Lets get real.
Sorry, Dennis, you are way off base. newsie has been hanging out here
on s.e.d. for a long time now, and some of us have spent considerable
time in exchanges with him. If you like it or not, we're part of his
community, and for a dozen or so of us longtimers here, that's true.
Huh. I guess I will continue to suspend judgement a little longer. I wasAt any rate we know a lot about him, exactly where he lives, photos of
the neighborhood, etc., etc. He's an aging fellow, not a punk kid, not
a troll, not baiting us (he truly wants to communicate and talk), and he
does believe this stuff he spouts: he's not fabricating it, at least not
in the sense of an intentional lie. But sadly, neither is he responsive
to offers of help, medical advice, technical measurements, or otherwise.
