Default Simulators

To MX: Son, you're way too defensive. And (in my humble opinion) taking
this MS simulator much too seriously. There's absolutely nothing wrong
with sim-flying as a harmless hobby. But you're trying to interlace it
with the real thing too rigidly, and thin out the dividing line.


That's nothing, but the tip of the "reality is lost" iceberg.

Ever hear about all the planes he pretends to own, or all of the flights he
takes for his customers?
How about how he waits at the airport for his customers to show up, and
sometimes he has to wait for the customer to arrive late?
How about bloging about all of this stuff, and about how he flies the entire
trip in real time, even in hours long flights?
Think I'm making all of this up? Not at all. It is out there in e world.
What I have put down here is just a couple of many things that show the loss
of reality. Perhaps 2% of it. It goes on and on.

How about how he always ends up a thread telling a pilot how the pilot had
handled a situation wrongly, and that his way was the correct way. Wait and
see. Every thread ends up going that way, eventually.

Your response to him was a waste of your time. He will not take any of
your advice, admit that you may be correct, or learn anything. After all,
his intellect is superior to yours, and to anyone else's intellect falls
short of his. If you don't believe him, just ask him. He will be glad to
tell you how much better he is, and how much smarter he is than you, or
anyone else that posts here, or that doesn't post here. That really narrows
it down, doesn't it?

Now I have wasted way too much time. I hope you go look up some of what I
have sent here, to confirm it for yourself. Perhaps then you will agree
that responding to him is a waste of time, any you and others will spend
your energy on other posters and other endeavors.

Have a good one!
