Sorry -- can't stop. The muddled thinking that pervades this newsgroup
like November mist on a Sussex down dictates that commercial reality is
too hideous a spectre to accept, and that that messengers shall be shot
at.

May we please have those pearls of wisdom translated into English?


He means you're all talking ****e.


Bill, you might like him for his reactionary politics, but you're doing
yourself no favours by siding with somebody so lacking in integrity. He
just abuses people that he has no answer for - heck, see what you've
quoted of his above - and he'll even deny that he does it in the very
next post.


Oh dear, I'm certainly not siding with him, not at all. I was merely
attempting to clarify his English. I'm not taking sides in this at all. It's
just that when someone comes out with a multi-clause sentence containing a
great deal of imagery it needs to be beautifully crafted, and that one
wasn't. But I suppose he would have polished it had it been intended for a
less transient medium. And has he got reactionary politics? Must say I've
never noticed. Always seems to be a bit of a lefty from where |I'm sitting.

I'm afraid your fine irony and hyperbole is wasted on many. In

devil's

Well that would explain why he can never come up with any facts, just
insults....

Perhaps I should remind you that I asked JF a question, he did not
answer but preferred to throw insults and lies back at me.

No they can't (easily), not unless the EPG and delivery etc. is

I think they can. They have to pay for their inclusion of the EPG but
could as well add another EPG to the bit stream.


Huh? I thought Sky's EPG encoding used the DVB-SI stream in a manner
incompatible with Event Information Tables (the standard EPG) - that is,
Sky-coding prevents adding another EPG to the bitstream. BBC told me that
they can't add the standard EPG to satellite. Is that incorrect?


I was just guessing. Using something in an incompatible manner - yuck.
That should not be needed, but I guess it just seemed a good idea at the
time.

For now it is probably a lot of work to fix.

I think that little rant says all there is to be said about the worth
of your contributions and knowledge.


It's absolutely true. Yes, I admit to being a great big, nasty man who's
saying unpalatable truths that pink and fluffies can't stomach.

And you should see his stomach, it's shadow is very handy for keeping
your cold lager from the sun on hot summer days.

James, seriously, does it ever worry you that something you say on usenet
will be quoted (possibly out of context) somewhere and used to discredit
you in the wider world? After all your sales depend to some extent on your
image, presumably.
Bill

That presumes he had, or still has any reputation still worth keeping

I suspect he long had hope of being quoted out of context,
in order to raise his already low reputation

i.e You can't lower what has already sunk ;-)

Sod Jean Paul. What about Martin Buber? He believed that most education
takes place through dialogue. Not seen much of that on here.

Depends on the dialogue, if the dialogue is say by islamic mad mulers,
I doubt much real education.

Well said, that man. In fact, many people have their curious reactions
shaped by what they think I've said, rather than what I've actually said.
For example I've been accused of using personal insults --something I
rarely do. Strange that the accusers never cite evidence -- not even from
memory. ...


Hardly necessary when almost this whole thread stands as evidence of
your insulting people being your raison d'être. You thinly disguise your
insults of other posters with verbiage, but they're still insults.

You're answering only the invective, but avoiding the actual questions.
I do believe you're enjoying this.


What else is usenet for? No-one posts unless they enjoy it.

It's chocolate sauce... and there are three frames that show the knife
piercing flesh.

Again you assume it's flesh, it could be blancmange for all you know
