The perils of "search & replace" in documentation.

I said "chat ROOM," not "forum." See the difference?

My what?

"If I recall correctly has 'chat rooms' or 'channels'"??? What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Here's a free clue: If you're going to use 3-letter acronyms like the other cool kids on the Usernet (tm), you ought to at least first figure out what they mean. LOL!

Thank you.

As someone else has already pointed out, you are absolutely correct. Nothing about my use of words hurts your reputation. The question then is: What does?

What's a sparks?

Um . . . please quote me accurately if you are going to respond to my posts. No one is fooled by your clever editing of what I've said, particularly when said editing is so obviously a desperate attempt to make yourself look clever.

Try again, indeed.

This is a strange thread for an electrical engineering forum. Wouldn't it make sense on a writing forum?

I can believe _some_ of it. (The question be, which parts?)

HEY! Just beacuse the man's DEAD doesn't mean he loses all GENDER! (It hasn't even had time to deliquesce yet!)

Oh, I thought you meant "fax" -- my bad!

Ah, Emily Dickinson. (Warning: do NOT read Emily Dickinson within three hours of viewing lolcats pictures.)

The good news is: we can cure that.

That's the feeling of pleasure one gets from viewing someone else stuck in a temporal loop, right?

Or maybe he meant "Zanzibar", come to think of it.

Dave

Wait, you don't know the difference between "your" and "you're," and you're claiming authority as an English maven? How surprising!

Not really.

Damn. All these uneducated people crashing the party. "The Grapes of Wrath" is a book about Ernest Gallo's stormy first marriage and subsequent divorce. It was written by Truman Capote right after he finished "In Out of the Cold, Blood"; a book about the first Afro-American CIA agent.

Steinbeck wrote "Canery Row". It was based on the 1916 riots that ensued when the Amalgamated Cane Weavers and Wicker Wrappers local tried to unionize the cane-backed chair industry in Monterey, California. Steinbeck's "row" rhymed with "sow", but his publisher thought it was a novel about some Jamaican sugar cane cutters who wanted to compete in the Olympic sculling events.

Well, Steinbeck DID create Superman, and there were not only movies, but man television series based on this most beloved of Steibeck's characters.

Certainly. Without wishing to encourage the kibologists, who appear to suffer from advanced billoddism (that's the word we doctors use for pathological delusions of funniness), surely you'll accept that the emphasis fits well here.

ITYM "us doctors."

PS: Does it usually take you this many posts before you casually mention that you're a doctor? From what I've seen, I would've guessed you'd get around to that about the third or fourth post.

Once Twice Three times a troll bait

Thanks, Don

Finally! An intelligent insult!

I was beginning to lose hope.

Don't hide your light behind a bushel, Sparks -- even if you have, as always, wired it incorrectly.
