Only 33 groups under the general heading, you should be able to find something to fit your own personal mind twist.

The only thing I'm certain of is that whichever party wants to throw mud on the other will try to cast doubt on any explanation that is offered by the other. I'm also certain that truth and politics are at opposite ends of the spectrum. So one didn't inhale, and according to you, one is a coward. Do a little checking on the GWeeB's military record.

2. You are crossposting G Ah but I am not. Gunner why *do* you find it necessary to kick the hornet's nest so they fly around in so many ngs? Honestly this is one of your least attractive features and I suspect your stock here at rcm would go up _several_ notches in the eyes of many regular posters, if you stopped doing it. Your comment to lennie was indeed crossed over to a number of other groups, with the only goal I can figure out, of getting him further embroiled. Play nice.

As I said, "computer ignorant". I had the help of a very good, sweet, patient friend in doing the settings when I first got this. This was via the phone as he lives quite a ways away (a very looong phone call). He told me what to do and I fumbled around trying to do it. I was going to go to the paid version for the benefit of having the killfile however I wasn't sure if I would keep the present settings if I download the fancy version. I sent the Agent folks an e-mail asking about this. Harumph. They didn't reply. You'd think that they'd be willing to answer the simple question in order to sell their product. If I lost the current settings I'd not want to bother said good, sweet, patient friend to help me again. Everyone has a limit to their patience. G Sue Gary |

So, it turns out a person can vote for a new governor without voting
to recall the present one in california if I heard the court decision right. Anyway, I was wondering when the regular vote was going to come up. In 2004? So maybe Gray would have been replaced soon anyway? It's gonna cost the state about 40 million bucks for this recall vote according to the news. And how much will be spent on campaigning? It seems silly, here in WA, what is happening in CA. But that's what 800 miles of separation will do. ERS |

Looks to me as though Lennie is posting through Google. Yes, thanks to the spectacular demonstration of good conservative policy known as worldcom, my isp doesn't have a newsserver. I don't know about Google but with Free Agent I can't remove groups With google, if a message is originated in something like alt.hate.everyone, all replies, doesn't matter if you trim or not, will always include that one, or did before I gave up trying to trim them. 99% of the gunrunners posts come from some other group. There is a way even with Free Agent to trim them, just haven't used it for so long I don't remember. I won't need to know either, by the end of the week, I'll have blown windows out of the last one of my four computers, only one of which is on line, and that's the last one of them. Between linux and windows, windows is the crash car, I haven't hung linux yet, don't think I will, not even with four desktops running at one time. and that's only in one computer. There is life beyond the Blue Screen of Death. |
