I am going to rip off an expression from The Great Book

yorn with "let he who be not carrying the sin cast that

Usenet, when it works best for *readers*, is all about
folks of the ilk of BGB. The variation in pitch without
being "whacko" is exactly what is needed in making a
read. How many times have you "nodded off" in a lecture
hearing some fundamentalist pedant ramble on in
monotone on the topic, without once even acknowledging
there is an audience nor maybe regale same with a
diversionary (stay awake!) anecdotal on the mornings
exercise in the broom cupboard with the campus 
cleaner (either gender-both)!?
Myself I read thousands of posts in any one week, I
publish very few, if any, some weeks. Lately (2 years+)
the likes of Paul Derbyshire are "holding the floor" in
many a group. That activity ruins my read.

As much as Paul loathes being criticized for his
stupidities, I get very proactive when an asshole ruins
my read. Such is why you see me 'pop'.
Reading people as BGB simply urges learning and the
hunting of more information, so as to "get it".
I do not need to post to learn about a topic, I do need
to be able to read to have Usenet work for me. 
Thousands, nay millions, would join with that.

>and speaking only for myself *I* don't think there's
>anything wrong with the occasional digression from such a person.

I agree with the direction of your point. I carnt say
"wrong" however, is the word I would use. 
Digression from topic only fits the "wrong" tag when it
leaves the bone of the topic entirely, like mixing fart
jokes into a thread on the biorhythms of an amoeba,
claiming validity of topic as methane production being
a biological function.
This is exactly Paul's MO, precisely.
Paul takes great umbrage when pulled over for doing 
so, playing the victim card as the first pawn move. 
All contrived, as the resultant flammage is his
intended outcome, as a "victolly, I claim victolly".
Paul in full flight demands he has the last word,
always.
Paul's MO is wrong, and Paul knows it.

>My record's not nearly so good, alas, and if there was an intent

I would offer those blessed with quiet humor and a 
sprinkling of intelligence would have no problem
accepting the explanation with a warm smile.

I was most surprised to stumble across posts
by Paul Derbyshire again impacting on the language
groups, as this has all been done before, on at least
three occasions in the past three years I am aware of.
In fact it is through the considerate action of one
member of cljp (at one time) that I was able to
conclusively "nail Paul's ass" in archiving provenance
for his activity elsewhere, Activity which was
impacting on a much wider section of Usenet than the
Java related groups.
That information then allowed covert email contact
with Paul Derbyshire of the Fractals/Mushrooms.
The identification then complete.
http://mushroomobserver.org/observer/show_user?_js=off&_new=true&id=621

Where those people are today I cannot know, a quick
pull of headers does not show anything familiar to
myself. Therefore I again put the information as an
addendum. There is absolutely no doubt 
Paul Derbyshire of  the Fractals and Paul Derbyshire
of the Mushrooms _a n d_ the plethora of posting names 
used over many years are one and the same actual
person.
Paul has constructed his own problems, made his own 
bed. Contrary to his belief the World owes him nothing.
Always beyond "off-topic", he is beyond that as can be
tolerated by many, only Paul can fix that.



As an aside, may I suggest you try this syntax in trn
as a "From"? 
"blmblm@myrealbox.com" <blmblm.myrealbox@gmail.com>
The change may then allow your "nym" to list
'correctly' in the message group for all reader
software;
example of your header display in one reader is here:

Thank you for your contribution.

I bid you good day and good wind aft of the body.

cheers
