I do not see any follow-ups on my newsreader. But in any event, fool around
with your own original messages. I do not like others fooling around with my
original messages. All you are really doing is screwing up the thread for
many on other newsgroups. No one will go to another group to read a
follow-up.

Eugene, there is something wrong with the way your brain works. The above
sentence does not make any sense to me. It is grammatically a mess.

I agree, but I do not like those who edit a post to make themselves look
good at the expense of the other person. Way too many do that. It shows they
do not have any confidence in their ability to handle a complete message.

I do not think you would be a good moderator at all because there is
something wrong with way your brain works.

Your freaking comments should have followed my complete statement. God, what
a dunce! You are not only dumb, but you are incurably lazy.

Just quit taking shortcuts with me. I expect you to be literate at all
times, even though you are a scientist.

YES! Of course I am wasting my time! And you aren't?
Anyone who is posting to Usenet is wasting his time. I do it for the fun and
games. Why the hell do you do it?
