QUOTE:


"Not really. *Another fanatic off the roads".
"What a sad ******* he must have been."


Are you suggesting he wasn't a fanatic and a sad ******* then?


No wonder his family was mortified when they read those comments.


Cwispin deliberately drew their attention to them. *Blame him.


You used to know different:-


Simon Mason:- “It is a sobering thought that everything anyone has
ever said on urc is so easily found even on Google's home page.
Chickens coming home to roost springs to mind.”


Bertie Wooster:- “The daughter of a late friend of mine found out
about her father's
death from a Usenet message I posted.


So if Cwispin hadn't posted that wankcry......

In my defence, I didn't post the message until the news had been
published in the national press. However, that didn't prevent the
daughter being furious at the way she discovered her late father's
death. Her distress was further compounded by the inhuman response of
David Lang posting as The Medway Handyman.”


Inhuman?



David Lang: The Medway Handyman:-“So exactly how was the daughter
directed to uk.rec.cycling? *I'd bet good money she wasn't a regular
usenet reader.”


And indeed she wasn't - until Cwispin directed her to it.



Bertie Wooster:-“The obituary I posted was picked up by the Guardian
on-line, and thence to blogs across the cycling community, which
linked back to the
Guardian on-line, which in turn referenced uk.rec.cycling: my post
went semi-viral.


The cycling community - nuff said.

Apparantly Barry's daughter (and I got it wrong, he had a son and a
daughter, not twin sons), saw the Guardian's report, either from one
of the cycling blogs, or directly, and then saw your comments in
direct response to the obituary I had posted.
She was, I am told, more upset about having heard about her father's
death via the Internet than your ignorant comments.


So the Cwispin **** caused the upset, then compounded it?

But it does show,
Dave, that you do need to put some thought into what you post before
press that send button.


I did put some thought into it. He was a ******.

Your response to the death of a good man was inhuman. You may have
meant it in jest,


It wasn't meant in jest, the man was clearly a ******.

but it did have consequences for the bereaved
family.”


Because the Cwispin **** drew her attention to it.

----------------------------------------------------------------


Tom Crispin:-“Barry was taken to Honor Oak Crematorium by bicycle
hearse, escorted by dozens of cyclists.”


David Lang:-“ A ****** in life - a ****** in death. *Determined to the
end to be a
total ****.
Darwin rules.”


What's wrong with that? He was clearly a total ******.


Vade retro satana. Return into darkest uk.diy.
