  1. why do people have to be insulting on in this newsgroup. If a person has
    asked a question then it should be answered in a polite manner. If people
    don't have anything constructive to say then they should bloody well butt
    out.

    I think it's because many people on this group think of LC as a religion,
    and they're offended by anyone who doesn't practice their exact beliefs.
    So they respond by attacking.

    Then there's JC, who is just an unmitigated [censored].

    "herby" is a spammer/scammer. For some reason they didn't on that one
    message, but their usual schtick is spam for a LA
    somethingorotherweightlossscam. Except for yesterday in here when
    they mistook a question about LA Weight Loss for their scam and
    started raving about LA Weight Loss. Google their email address.

    People tend to be *rude* when they can hide behind their keyboards. It’s
    a product of the Internet. Back in the day when we talked face to face,
    we were considerate of their feelings or we'd get our butts kicked :-)

    the boys could get away with being rude sometimes, while I as a girl
    wasn't allowed to be anything other than Miss Mary Sunshine because it
    was not "ladylike". The kicking reference is what I sometimes wanted
    to do while I smiled and acted ladylike.

    And from that, you learned self-control, and how to show grace and class in

    Using an approach that takes glycemic load/index into account
    but that does not limit total carbs eaten, that does not count
    as a low carb approach.

    Folks on this newsgroup point out when someone is deceiving
    themselves. Purely GL/GI approaces aren't low carb so trying
    to discuss them on a low carb newsgroup takes deceiving
    yourself. Trying to wedge rice, which is inherently high
    carb, into a low carb image also takes deceiving yourself.

    Actually it's a product of UseNet. UseNet and the
    Internet are two different things. UseNet thrived
    long before it got connected to the Internet and vice
    versa.

    in UseNet posts.

    Not all-or-nothing but the trend is there. Folks I
    have butted heads with on UseNet, I've ended up meeting
    in person and getting along fine in person.

    UseNet has a culture of its own, and part of that culture
    is having UseNet-newbies lamenting the style of interaction.
    "Can't we all just be nice to one another" is a common
    newbie refrain on most newsgroups. It isn't specific to
    ALDLC, nor is it generalized to the entire Internet.

    That's fine, but that can be done without brow-beating the person asking
