Test -- ignore

This post would have been MUCH EASIER to ignore if it wasn't posted.
It should not have been posted in an inappropriate place like this.

Imaging walking into an existing conversation and yelling "HEY
THERE!!! IS MY MOUTH WORKING????". Use alt.test, the place for these
annoying distractions.

I now find such test messages helpful. *It is an announcement that a
clueless obnoxious moron has approached. I immediately killfile them
there and then and don't have to worry about having to do it later.

actually, I didn't see the original test message as I KF all of
verizon.net. *Your followup was the first I saw of this inappropriate
thread

Here's a little tip: If you feel the need to post a test, simply post
something that is on topic for the group. Don't identify it as a test.

Example:
************************************************** ******
Which is better, a framing hammer with a fiberglass handle or one with
a wooden handle?
************************************************** ******

Better for what?
