    "Your, "You're." Common speeling mistake of the masses. Quoting
    Shakespeare is on another level with a much higher threshold of
    correct usage.

    But R,

    You accept errors common to the masses in yourself but upbraid others
    who fail to quote Shakespeare verbatim?!

    Your usage of "try and" is offensive too, and the mark of the commoner.

    Hypocrisy. Don't pretend to be something you aren't.

    D'ohBoy, who holds to a higher standard those who hold others to a
    higher standard.


    A. I am not Brickston.
    B. I never quote the bard.

    C. You're an [censored].

    Finally,
    Somebody else exposing our biggest jerk.

    Oh, Bill,

    You're an annoying [censored] too.

    I merely seed the group when it gets slow.

    Dolan seems to be going after
    the real top 'annoying' poster but won't trim his replies.
    Bill Baka

    Yes, someone should trim your excessive verbiage when replying.

    I did plonk him and the only way I see his childish posts is when
    someone else replies to him. Since Mozilla and Thunderbird are open
    source and I am a decent programmer I may get the source code and build
    a better filter module that looks for his name inside the message, too.
    Bill Baka

    Doesn't Thunderbird let you filter by regex on the message body as it is?
    Seems like a pretty stark missing feature.


    It has an everything possible filter on e-mail but not on news, which
    strangely enough is in the same program. It strikes me as strange too.
    Bill Baka

    Odd. I suppose this is a little like Kmail/Knode - the filtering in Kmail
    lets you do a few extra things (like pipe through an external program) that
    Knode doesn't. Both let you do regex matching on anything though.

    Would you pay the same attention to detail when you are dressing prior
    to picking up the local bar-fly banging queen as you would for a date

    Ewww.... Julia Roberts? About the same effort, I would say.

    Now a buxom redhead who cycles seriously, on the other hand......
