You just don't get it. Don's been posting great stuff since at least
1994.

And in all that time, it never dawned on him that there might be a
technical solution to solve his signal:noise problem? It's not like
killfiles are a secret new technology.

If a guy doesn't ask for help, and doesn't want to use basic tools to
change how a group works for him, well, ...

Holy Jeezus Crap! You mean to tell me that newsgroups have changed since
1994?

SOMEBODY SLAP ME!

Of course this newsgroups and all of the Internet has changed since way
back. To think otherwise would be unrealistic. To think that things should
stay the same old same old is Old Fartism taken to the Nth degree. (I'm an
old retired fart who loves this new change. New tools, new ways of doing
things, new, new, new everything!)

The dinosaurs die off along the way, and the ones who survive adapt. And
old dinosaurs that at least try to change and keep up have an easier time of
it, with far less ****ing and moaning to disturb the majority.

If you can't adapt, go off in the corner and just lay there like a turd
until you die. If you can and want to adapt, welcome to the buffet. Dig in
and don't go away hungry.
