There you go... the mystery is solved if your middle name is Arthur. They
don't show the final "s" in the name.

Yep...seems to have solved THAT mystery all right.

Now, the only mystery left for me is how Usenet can be so chuck full of
people who actually spend most of their on line time concerned with "
exposing" someone....or discovering that someone isn't who they appear to
be.....or that someone is lying.....or that THEY have a better answer than
someone else.......or what has come to be for me at least; the ultimate
mystery of Usenet......that being the existence of people out here who
actually will wait patiently for a particular poster they don't like to post
something....ANYTHING......and then check every word...every
statement......every meaning....in the twisted hope that the poster they
don't particularly like very well will make a mistake.....no matter how tiny
a mistake or error...that THEY can jump on immediately to use as "absolute
proof" that the object of their "exposure" is flawed!
Actually, I solved this "mystery" years ago. That's why I no longer treat
Usenet as a serious means of communicating with my fellow pilots. It's just
an odd place on the net to come into from time to time...see my name bandied
about by people who have absolutely no idea what they are talking about,
then leave quietly as I came.....either totally disgusted or laughing like
hell at the sheer stupidity that is Usenet :-)
