Thanks for your perdigree, but you still haven't cleared
up my confusion about your choice of terms.

Pedigree? What an odd statement. I'm sorry you do not
understand the term. I'm not sure how else to explain
it to you.

Quoted message said:

Why are you calling the person who should be censored and
needs a net nanny, a net nanny? I still don't get it.

No one on Usenet can be censored be unless their ISP decides
their TOS has been violated. The people posting that believe
*they* should decide who should and should not be censored
are the Net nannies. There are plenty of them around and are
a constant source of amusement to me. They are also
extremely fun to toy with.

Oh for heaven's sake, Michael... look at your posting name:
Dog. Dogs have pedigrees (backgrounds) and you posted yours.

Never fear, you managed to make me understand at the end of
this post. >G<

So, net nannys are the the busybodys of usenet. I don't
think the idea of censorship is an issue for them, but full
control (submitting to their way of thinking) is. They are
like that dreaded relative or neighbor who sticks their nose
into everyone's business.

You have to get your kicks somewhere - so if it's not on
Route 66, then it will be on the information highway.

<G> Yes, I'm certainly old enough. Hey, speaking or route
66; Have you ever done that route 66 run? There is an
antique car club that does it annualy (sp). I don't know
much about it. Good food along the way?

Top posting is good, if you are following reading a thread.
Then you don't have to scroll past all the old stuff to
read the new. If you start reading in the middle of a
thread then you can scroll down and read all of the past
messages to catchup.

Submitted by somebody who either can't form correct
English sentences or can't be bothered to proofread what
he writes! :-)

What exactly is a "following reading" anyway? ;-)

read downwards, please don't top post. Trim messages to
quote only relevant text. Check groups.google.com before
asking a question.

This is probably true because you read a lot of articles
posted by inexperienced (or stupid) people who don't know
how to trim their replies

It should be easy to catch up on the thread if the posting
is properly done but hardly anyone posting to usenet these
days seems to care (or doesn't know any better)

No, I haven't... Isn't most of the original Route 66 buried
under freeways and other stuff now?

I was on parts of it as a kid when we drove from Michigan to
the "4 Corners" area in the Southwest for a vacation.
Haven't done it since.

But, when my mother divorced and drove out to California
with my infant brother, she followed most if not all of
Route 66. I remember that she wrote us a postcard from Boot
Hill, while she was giving Baby Brother (now in his 30's) a
bottle. We girls (teenagers at the time), flew to California
later - during our semester break. I became a life long
Californian, sister lives in Wisconsin, mother/brother live
in (mid-coastal) Oregon.

I have a model T, but it would need a "non" model T engine
and some good shock absorbers to lure me into doing that.

Central in Albuquerque is Route 66. There are plenty of good
places to eat along there....

If people trim their quotes properly, it's never an issue.

I have a real newsreader with real threading capability. I

Not quite. It's not a chat room. It's a newsgroup whose
focus is supposed to cookiing food. Topics drift
