Hi, not-quite-all,

Since I carried out a long-overdue cull of the worst deadwood on this
group, the signal/noise ratio has improved no end. All those dreadful,
unending eponymous threads with sh*t-for-brains in the subject header
no longer pollute my monitor and I can live in peace with my computer
again. OT stuff by OT posters is no longer tolerated!
I heartily recommend aggressive pruning of all the OT shite on this
newsgroup. Learn to love Usenet again...

Peace be with some of you...

p.

This post made me think of something funny. What if there were two (or
more) different factions in a newsgroup who mutually plonked each other.
For the most part, they wouldn't see each others posts, but they could
still communicate in this forum with their faction mates (so to speak).
Kind of like orthogonal codes.

Kind of funny.

It wouldn't work very well in an NG with a loose cannon like me. ;-)

Is "cross-plonking" a word?

Cheers!
Rich
By default I'll read anything that looks fun or interesting, so I'd
end up as another cross-reader.

Sounds like politics in the US. Both sides think the other side is
insane, have their own media voices, commedians, magazines, newspapers,
etc. There was an interesting article on it in Time magazine.
