Not sure how professional the documents are that you are 'writting'!

Like I said, I don't proof read, spell check, or do anything other
than pound keys for USENET postings. I could care less if there are
typos.

What part of that needs explaining?

I'm a consultant in a specialized field.

You think that's bad, I know a guy in this field that charges, and gets,
$4/minute.

I need to raise my rates.

So as a spokesman in an archived, worldwide forum, you have no
compunction about putting on a less than literate face by which the
world can judge airmen everywhere for decades?

I'm not a spokesman for anyone or anything other than myself on
USENET.

USENET is nothing more than an electronic version of a hanger BS
session.

You are exactly right. And people are shocked when we go off on non-aviation
tangents. The only difference between hanger BS and what happens here is
that certain people would have been run off in real life long ago.

If you want to see inane, totally off topic crap, read sci.physics for
a while.

Verbal communications only reach those listeners within earshot, and
more importantly, they are ephemeral.

Usenet articles are read throughout the world, and because they are
archived for decades, they are persistent.

Hopefully you are able to understand the distinction between the two?

I remember converstation from the Korean war; that's barely ephemeral.

Usenet articles are read throughout the world, and because they are
archived for decades, they are persistent.

And most people realize USENET an electronic BS session.

Archived BS is still BS.

Hopefully you are able to understand the distinction between the two?

Hopefully you are able to understand the distinction between a BS
session and a conference.

Let's look at some achived, persistent, erudite posts to USENET that
the whole world can see:

By tj Frazer:

"we are mixing maths.
a piston engine has no HP at 5 rpm.

2000 HP piston engine at 5 rpm is 0 hp.

But ssvr 650 foot pounds at 5 RPM is 1/2 HP on paper with the piston
math.
1/2 HP engine pistons ,,wount pull ****.
The V8 wount bust the 650 pound rope ..
the 1/2 hp wount pull the rope out of my hand.
The 650 pounds going forward bust the rope easy.
all at the same speed down road 5 rpm wheel."

A treasure to be sure

Or perhaps this gem from habshi:

" In Canada farmers are desperate for snow in wintertime because
it insulates the earth and stops the ground from freezing rock hard.
I am not sure if earth is a good or bad conductor , but assuming its
bad then we can make use of the fact that the ground soaks up 50% of
the trillions of barrels of oil equivalent energy the sun sends us
each day.
Why not put a blanket on the ground at night , street urchins
would then take it off in the day to allow more ground heating and
then put it on again at night. Within a few days the ground would get
piping hot and water can then flow on it and be used in a heat
exchanger.
The Brits have something called a tea cosy. They wrap the tea
pot in a padded jacket and it keeps the tea hot for long. I would be
the first to put a padded blanket on my roof but then Al Qaida would
know where I live. So maybe Jim can be the first one to do it and tell
us how much energy he saves ."

And yes, the Jim he is referring to is me because I keep telling him
he is a babbling idiot.
