Well I can read the postings again as they are sent, but 5 posts I
have made this morning have got lost in the wide blue yonder, or
somewhere.
David

and the wide blue yonder will have a lot in it if we go back to the
beginning ;-)

In the beginning ....


In ancient Israel , it came to pass that a trader by the name of
Abraham Com
did take unto himself a young wife by the name of Dot. And Dot Com
was a
comely woman, broad of shoulder and long of leg. Indeed, she was
often called
Amazon Dot Com.

And she said unto Abraham, her husband, "Why dost thou travel so far
from town
to town with thy goods when thou canst trade without ever leaving thy
tent?"

And Abraham did look at her as though she were several saddle bags
short of a
camel load, but simply said, "How, dear?"

And Dot replied, "I will place drums in all the towns and drums in
between to
send messages saying what you have for sale, and they will reply
telling you
who hath the best price. And the sale can be made on the drums and
delivery
made by Uriah's Pony Stable (UPS)."

Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot have her way with
the drums.
And the drums rang out and were an immediate success. Abraham sold
all the
goods he had at the top price, without ever having to move from his
tent.
To prevent neighbouring countries from overhearing what the drums
were saying,
Dot devised a system that only she and the drummers knew. It was
known as
Must Send Drum Over Sound (MSDOS), and she also developed a language
to
transmit ideas and pictures - Hebrew To The People (HTTP).

And the young men did take to Dot Com's trading as doth the greedy
horsefly
take to camel dung. They were called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich
Dominican
Sybarites, or NERDS.

And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new riches and the
deafening
sound of drums that no one noticed that the real riches were going to
that
enterprising drum dealer, Brother William of Gates, who bought off
every drum
maker in the land. And indeed did insist on drums to be made that
would work
only with Brother Gates' drumheads and drumsticks.

And Dot did say, "Oh, Abraham, what we have started is being taken
over by
others."
And Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel , or eBay as it came
to be
known. He said, "We need a name that reflects what we are."

And Dot replied, "Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators." "YAHOO,"
said
Abraham. And because it was Dot's idea, they named it YAHOO Dot Com.

Abraham's cousin, Joshua, being the young Gregarious Energetic
Educated Kid
(GEEK) that he was, soon started using Dot's drums to locate things
around the
countryside. It soon became known as God's Own Official Guide to
Locating
Everything (GOOGLE).

And that's how it all began !

And you have demonstrated yet again that you are completely out of
touch with reality. Please be considerate and stop annoying everyone
with these ridiculous postings which have no bearing on the subject
matter of this newsgroup.

Just think Bill, if you were to start a gardening forum of your own,
one where contributors had to register, instead of just trying to stamp
your unapproved authority on this one along with the others, you could
turn away those who rattle your cage for any reason at all.

Give it a thought :-))

Kindest regards

Mike

I have two options:-

1 to Killfile you

2 Give you a chance to get a grip and not be such a nuisance and a
bore.

The ball is in your court.

Bill


"If you can't stand the heat of the kitchen ..................." or words
of that effect.

Kindly post where you have been raised to the sublime height of urg
'supremo'.

Kindest regards

Mike


If I am, then you're at the other end.
To late, you had your chance - bye-bye

Bill


As I said before .....

You didn't did you?

What is it, trying to stamp your authority here? :-(((

Kindest POSSIBLE regards
