As you can see. Goog Groups look like s*** in a proper NNTP client. And yes: I can snip whatever i have the desire to snip! ;-P
So too can I with Agent.
"Proper" used above with the same undefined lack of meaning that he uses when calling something "non-standard". Translates to: I don't like it so it must not be good, but I can't substantiate this.
Here Andreas is replying to Eric, and not keeping the attribution of who Eric was responding to, and Andreas thought he responded to me, so Andreas rvved up his normal circus.
Classic irony. Maybe I should post for weeks that Andreas can't tell the difference between me and android? :-D
It's clear to me that Eric did not write the line in which "proper" was used. Eric does not use "i" for "I", does not use asterisks in place of letters, and does not use smileys.
After a while of reading this group, who wrote a post becomes evident without looking at the name. If the post is full of single lines consisting of "incorrect" or uses of "ironic", "illiterate", or "haha", it's obvious that it's a post from Sandman weaseling around some issue.
As Sandman's posts become increasing more hysterical and shrill, they are at least becoming shorter. He's snipping the parts that clearly refute his idiotic maunderings.
