Hey...watta ya know......the group psychologist arrives!!! :-))

Listen up there Pig!
Not that it matters, but like most idiot amateur Usenet psychologists
, you are misreading my intention. Let me straighten you out here
ole'buddy if I can.
I'm not angry. I'm disgusted! There's a huge difference. I'm merely
telling a few of you folks how I view some of you morons on
"piloting". By doing that, I don't intend to make friends of the
idiots I'm addressing . The good people around here that I'm NOT
talking to won't be responding to my post anyway. They already share
my disgust and will remain internet friends regardless of my telling
the rest of you clowns to go to hell.
Actually, for your edification, what I'm REALLY doing with a post
like
the one you're answering now is separating the morons like you from
the worthwhile posters on this group. You see, there's a plan going
on
here, but idiots like you never seem to catch on.
The objective here isn't to "lash out" as you say. I don't care
enough
about the specific people I'm addressing to "lash out" at them.


HA! .... looks like a "lashing" to me, I can "feel" your anger as I
read it.


All I'm doing here my friend is getting things all nice and tidy for
the upcoming year of posting.
Morons like you will respond as you've done already and possibly will
again. Perhaps not. Who gives a damn? :-)
Other morons will do their little "plonk" thing. Those worth knowing
and having an intelligent aviation dialog with will already know me
and what's going on and keep out of it.
In the end, I'll know who's worth me taking my time with and who to
avoid around here. With any luck at all, people like you will just
killfile me and I'll be done with you. Then, when everything settles
out, all that will be left will be those who understand aviation the
way I do, and everybody will be happy campers. I'll know who to spend
time posting to on this group and who to avoid around here, and if
that means that there's only one person on this entire newsgroup
worth
my time, this little exercise will have been worthwhile for me.
Get it yet? :-)

But seriously, did you type that and wait an hour, then re-read before
sending.... doubtfull grin.

Trust me BP, I'm giving you the straight skinny on this FWIW.
Believe me, after attending 32 funerals through fifty years of close
association with the low altitude demonstration community, including our
friends on the jet teams from several continents whom we have buried,
I'm not all that sensitive to these issues on the anger side of the
equation. I think I know the score on these issues, both crash video and
Usenet.
I'm just tired of having to separate the idiots from the good folks
around this particular newsgroup, and I've decided to take the gloves
off for awhile and sort out the chaff.
Like you have correctly said, there are all kinds of people on Usenet.
Most of the people on this group are fine and decent folks...yes, even
some of them who watch crash videos of friends of mine going in. These
people are different from the idiots out here however. They'll watch the
video, but don't feel the need to lecture someone like me, a pilot who
survived this extremely dangerous environment. If they want to discuss
it with me, they'll ASK....not tell!! Problem is, I've been wasting a
lot of my time posting to some people who don't deserve that time, and
it's these people, not the decent folks that my rather "direct" posting
style is geared to.
I've decided that in the future on Usenet, although I can't control
people who will post to me, I CAN control people to whom I will post and
share information.
So you see old buddy, that's all it is..........a sorting out process so
to speak......a thinning out of the unwashed as they say, from the
people I consider worth the sharing of my time, my effort, and my
experience......nothing more sinister than that.
All the direct language from me is simply to let specific posters know
how I feel about them in the hope they won't bother posting to me again.
Of course they can still do that, but at least they will be forewarned
that I am no longer a friendly response....completely hostile to them.
You would be surprised how effective this technique has been for me. I'd
estimate that I've gotten rid of at least 30% of the morons out here for
initial posting to me. Those idiots who persist I can either take on or
pass over, but at least I'm not having to open and read as many moronic
posts as I did before I adopted this tactic.
So you see, it might not be the best plan in the universe, and perhaps
you would be doing it differently, but it's working just fine for me.
Those who hate my guts are leaving...at least enough of them to make it
worth while. What's left are intelligent and decent posters with whom I
can and will have meaningful dialog for years to come. :-)
