Default You have come a long way

Remember that a commercial about 'You came a long way baby' once upon a time. Oh yes,
'Virginia Slims'.

Remember back in the past when Iggy asked some rather *interesting* questions and some of
us wondered if he was twisting our tail?

Now look at him, trying to refit a cnc which I'm sure will be a success.

You have come a long way Igor.

I still think he twists our tail occasionally. Like posting that his
kid was only in the 92 percentile in English.

Second that.

Iggy, you've raised the bar for the rest of us.

Yes...indeed he has. And Im both proud of him and respectful of him for
his drive, his gumption and his intelligence.

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.

I knew him when he couldn't even weld with 7018. Go figger.

Too bad he's not a moderator, among his other talents ............

Does he know how to form a moderated newsgroup? Just a
thought...................

Hey Wes... Thanks a lot... Life is good, mechanically speaking. I am
making an adaptor for encoders. Fearing that it will not be made
accurately enough.

Hi Steve... thanks for the kind words... I am kind of at a loss...

Back in 1996, I wrote a program for moderating newsgroups, it is
called STUMP. It is used by a few groups. I think that we are doing
great without any moderation, if we killfile a few jerks.

I know for me, the knowledge here is worth the sorting, and as you say, it
is easy to killfile. So, you never said what you think of a moderated
newsgroup ..............

Could I still keep my sig line? I'm very close to publishing that book, and
once I get rolling in all that money, I'd have lots of time to become the
new lead poster instead of being 15-18 every month. ;-)
