In The Stars: The Milky Way's Fiery End?
by Phil Berardelli Washington DC (UPI) Sep 09, 2004 The 1951 movie, "When Worlds Collide," portrays a race for survival as scientists attempt to build a modern-day Noah's Ark to convey a select group of people and farm animals to a wayward but livable planet before its moon smashes into and destroys the Earth Moer: http://www.spacedaily.com/news/cosmology-04z.html |

No, you're wrong. He'll go on posting forever. Or, until his mental
illness gets so bad he can no longer function. I always top post. No one moderates this newsgroup, so quit trying.

Yeah, he's always rude and inconsiderate and nothing's going to change him because he doesn't care about people who don't use the same newsreader as he does. It's the same sort of passive agressive behaviour demonstrated by Mad Scientist... just manifests a little differently. g |

What's the newsreader have to do with it?

Actually, I find all these posts to be of rather short interest. I
can keep up all by myself without help from an archive. That most of this crap is archived and wastes space on a computer somewhere is a mindboggling waste of time and space. And, more keeps getting added to it every day! You can ignore my posts from now on. I won't follow the rules and add to this waste...

I just usually snip, so that the sum total of his crap that is archived is slightly reduced, and the sum total of *knowledge* archived increases slightly.

Thanks for your support, Wally!
It is obvious that Min the Failure is posting his crap just to have it archived for future generations to ignore! Is this at least part of the reasons for the Mad Fool doing the same thing? Are all of the binary files archived too? I was wondering about the illegal music files and why, if archived, the RIAA hasn't stopped it.
