Seen on another group from Alan Holmes, not very long ago : "What's
google?". Now, if he'd been completely isolated from all media for the past
5 years, especially computer related ones, this would merely be an extremely
surprising question. But we know he's read papers, and has read and posted
to usenet for well over a year, so this implies something far worse.

As I said before, he's either very stupid, a troll, or both - I'm leaning
towards the last option.

cheers,
clive

I'm half wondering whether it really could be memory problems and personality
change caused by a stroke or something. But maybe he's really always been this
bad and I just happen to have seen worse examples of his posts recently.

He frequented / infected a few groups I read a while ago. Rarely seen
one person in so many killfiles, and yet so persistant.

Still, takes all sorts......
