That's incorrect. What you said was "conutieis". Now, you've written
"countiries". Want to go for "countries"?


How about a spell checker? Or maybe just some proofreading?

I could have reasonably deduced "countries" from your "countiries", but
I would never have gotten it from "conutieis".


It's still not clear that the word is "countries".

If the word "countries" is correct, then we still have some problems
with the meaning:

"I live in the US was born Prague which was few [countries?] ago over
there."

Were you born *in* Prague? Did you really mean that Prague was a few
countries ago? Prague still exists. Did you mean that Prague is in a
different country than it used to be in? That would be correct, but it
was only one country ago. It was in Czechoslovakia; now it is in the
Czech Republic. How much chaff are we to go through to arrive at what
you meant to convey?


Mark's philosophy is that if you can't understand what he wrote,
no matter how bolluxed up, it's *your* fault and *your* problem,
not his. That's obviously illogical.

There's a limit to even the best error-correcting codes. But they
all depend on the message being correct when transmitted...

not at all. you use exactly the same line of reasoning yourself

doesn't matter to you if I don't see your logic you just drive on

and you have made a logical post in year on the subject code testing
for example you don't care just drive on

You miss the point, Mark. Nobody can read some of the stuff you post.
If you dispense with spelling, capitalization and punctuation, why post
at all? Who wants to read the ramblings of an illiterate?

The ILA ("Illiterate Legion of America") is insulted that you'd call Mark an
illiterate.

Must be in the water...

I just got a phone call from the "Idiot's Defense League" and they
say they'll sue if I keep associating Markie with idiots...I asked them
what they suggested, and they said that whatever adjective I would
choose to use, "idiot" was just too good for him.

Just goes to show ya...

Any literate person can read it. Making sense out of it is
another matter.

If you dispense with spelling, capitalization and punctuation, why post at all?


Here's a theory, Dave: It's done to antagonize the reader. As a
way for the writer to insult the reader, by saying the reader
is unworthy of the effort required to write understandably.

Who wants to read the ramblings of an illiterate?


The point is that you and others bother to read the gibberish
and comment on it at length.

Uh, yep. Dave writes the questions "who wants to read..." and yet, it's
apparent he's done so--at length--and responded to it as well. Although,
I've never seen Dave participate in any kind of post other than to be
contentious or attempt to flare some kind of superior attitude. Maybe I've
not taken notice, but I don't remember ever seeing a post from Dave that is
remotely technical in nature, or that isn't a cheap route to taking pot
shots at those he has issues with.

That's OK, though, maybe the newsgroup is sport for him... I like the
contention myself. I'd much rather debate with some spunk, but arguing and
slinging mud suits me well when I'm in the mood...
