I've heard that before, and have no idea why, nor any real interest in
solving it: I don't want to read cpl via Usenet, and prefer to read it
as a mailing list. Somewhere between Gmail->python.org->python.org
<http://python.org>'s usenet server->the world, some people don't seem
to get my posts. Yet it shows up on some news servers, not others.
No idea. Nothing I know of can solve it.
Not sure, but perhaps it's possible to mail directly to gmane?
Is there *any* problem you don't have a fatuous answer for?
I thought the answer could help.
You thought you cold do a bit of ad hominem attack.
That's the difference between us.
Well, the way I see it, you assumed you knew better than Stephen, and
insisted on proposing a solution to a problem that he clearly stated he
had no interest in.
You're going into motivations, that it seems to me that you're projecting,
saying that any helpful suggestion mean that one thinks one knows better and
implies a desire to demonstrate imagined superiority.
You're trying to portray a helping hand as a negative personal characteristic of
the helper.
"the only reason that guy tries to help you is because he wishes to show how
superior he (thinks he) is".
That's your style in a fair number of postings, and now here:
* ad hominem attack,
* projection (at least the way I read it), and
* inject - noise - about - something - completely - irrelevant
Note that readers can easily guess about motivations for the last.
I'm not quite sure, given that, what the point of the advice was.
There are many people who read just the Usenet group, e.g. via Google groups.
When you say you don't understand the point of the advice, you're saying that
* those people don't matter, and that
* it doesn't matter whether they can read Stephen Hansen's articles.
That's
* slighting Stephen Hansen, and
* showing off an extreme ego-centric view of the world,
sorry.
However, my question was genuine, based on your observed behavior. I
agree I might have phrased it more politely, but I do find your
self-assurance somewhat irritating.
Thanks. :-)
Cheers & hth.,
