I think that you have been missing the whole point of Muahman's posts 
(from his point of view).

He's here solely to stir up reaction, as if it's the only sort of social 
interaction he's able to deal with. He was doing the same thing in the 
past; he's just not been around for a number of months previous to 
starting this string.

He's done the same sort of thing in various sport fora; sometimes 
posting as Brian Pratt, and other names, but with the same sort of 
confrontational attitude. At least this time, he's not gone off on any 
diaper-related tears, so far.

Which is most likely a few hundred less than what you paid for it.

You REALLY ought to learn something about Mac apps before making 
yourself look foolish.

That's true. Especially since one of the best (MT Newswatcher) is free.

In article < XXXX@XXXXX.COM >,







MT Newswatcher has pretty extensive filtering. And it sets the insertion point 
at the end of the text instead of at the top. 


Yeah, with MTNW I'm restricted to looking at it the way I want to. 


Seconded. Go get yourself fitted for a saddle, Donald.

It's a sensible decision given that literally every time I've mentioned 
Usenet to a non-techie I've had to explain what it is. (This has 
happened to me a couple of dozen times now.)

Well, I'm not so sure. If they bundled MT Newswatcher, for example, it 
would be hidden in the Applications folder like a lot of other stuff 
that never gets used. It would be beneficial for some users and wouldn't 
hurt others.

I've never used it.  What does it do that is better than
other newsreaders?

The best newsreader that I've encountered is slrn.  I'm just
too lazy to configure it for Solaris.
For filtering, it is the best.

Sorry, but you can't put a neophyte in front of XP either. 
I know... I've already tried it.
All he could say was it was too much computer for him to
use.
I think OS X would've been a bit easier for him, but the XP
experience left him bitter about computers as a whole.

I think it's much easier to follow threads than the typical 3 pane 
newsreader.

From my reading of his posts under "MuahMan", I have come to the same 
conclusion.  If you don't want to see his words, simply kill-file him.

However, for my part, I rather enjoy confrontation.  It gives me an 
opportunity to sharpen my writing skills (not the best, I admit).

By the way, I acted like a fool, and went against my own advice this 
morning, and insulted him a little.  After all, he's such a big target, 
it's kind of hard to leave him alone.  And he gives honest men a bad 
image.  He needs taking down more than a little.  Maybe he will finally 
grow up somewhat.
