I have never 'plonked' anyone.

However, there are many who I don't feel are often worth responding to.

I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about the...missing person.


The missing person stops posting because he sees no postings.

You have message this person allegedly wrote? I'd prefer to see it with 
my own eyes, Stargozer.

	Here is a sample of Mr.Person's writing.
	I have many other examples but I am having trouble
copying them so here is the first one I found.
	Once I copied this one I was able to find the other
messages up until about September 1.  I did it with Thunderbird.

I still have my Undocumented books (DOS, PC, Windows) and, somewhere a
very popular in its day list of IRQs that I downloaded at some point.

/Undocumented Windows/ pointed out that, as Windows evolved (this was
mostly about the 16-bit versions), Microsoft re-organized the APIs it
provided but left a stub in the original DLL to transfer the call to
whatever DLL it was now in.
I once used that to demonstrate that even a system that was clearly
designed could have "junk DNA" (superfluous code) in it.
This, of course, was back when "junk DNA" was Proof Positive against
people being designed.

Now there is no "junk DNA"; indeed, the difference between Man and
Monkey appears to be all about the former "junk DNA", which kind of
blows a hole in gene theory, as the non-genes appear to be more
important than the genes in some respects.

But ... but ... but

-- if they do it "right" in the sense of following JRRT's story, it
will not agree with the other films, which tell PJ's version.
-- if the do it "right" in the sense of being compatible with PJ's
film, then it will not agree with JRRT's story

It cannot be "right" in both senses.

=46or example:
-- in JRRT's story, the Hobbits obtain their swords from the
Barrow-Wights barrow
-- in PJ's story, the Hobbits obtain their swords from Aragorn, who
(presumably) went to the nearest cache of Hobbit-sized swords and
brought four back (one must imagine many such sites scattered
throughout the North for this to work) to Weathertop

So either they don't get their swords in the barrow, in which case the
film will be missing an important scene from the book, or PJ's film is
shown to be=20

wrong! wrong! wrong!

which, of course, it is in many ways.

Perhaps the Syndicate didn't explain. While we're out here, you're 
supposed to be my subordinate. You can't even see the pictures on the 
cover of the books in the Adult section. It follows that I would ask for 
the visual information to be relayed, Stargozer. Take off your full body

your antipodal machinations. You can seek power grabs in your next post

mission, you will be subordinate, prole. Now get back in your machine & 
hook up & get the stuff done.

I understand that Fiction books may have pictures on it's cover...

but you may never have heard the expression before...

"You Cannot Tell A Book By It's Cover."


Any 13 year old when he walks in a Libary...the fiction books section
doesn't have pictures in it. 

Why bother reading it? IT'S FICTION!


Let me put it this way..

there are on average 4 million books published every year...

i don't have time to read them all...

which ones should i read?

"Invasion of the Flying Saucers"?


WAT DA FUCK IS WRONG WIT YOUS PEOPLE?? YOUS READING ALL THE WRONG BOOKS!


"Moby Dick"??



fag stories.


Go ahead, go over to a girl and ask her..."Did you read the book 'Moby's
DICK'?

Side note, apparently, when Moby Dick is used in a classroom, it's com-
mon to ask for the name of the narrator.

It's also common for the students to completely miss it, based on early
internet memes.

Of course, being a girl she'll say.."It's not Moby's DICK, it's Moby
Dick, STUPID!"


I'll say, I haven't read the book but I saw a picture on the cover and
it's
some guy in the water with this real BIG THING!


My teacher said, "Did you read the book Moby Dick"? I said, "Are you
fucking kidding me, I LIVE IN BROOKLYN!!!"

Get a copy. Read Chapter 95, 'The Cassock'.

It is literally about whale dick, and the use it's put to on a whaling
ship.

Okay, this is how the book world works.

A 10 year kid goes to the library
to read a book.

He doesn't know which book to read
so he starts with 000-

until he finds a book that interest him.


As an adult I still go to the library
to find books..
I read the whole book
I follow the instructions..
and I end up with
newspaper and TV reporters
asking me questions Why 
did I do that?
I tell them "I went to the
library, I followed the instructions.
I showed them the book from the library
with all the Instructions I followed verbatim.
They took their news camera and scan the book!
I end up on TV nationwide.

Go back to that 10 year old
and he finds another book that interests
him. Guns. How to take them part.
All types of gun, etc.

I end up in the army
win award for best sharpshooter
without ever owning or having a gun.

What does that all mean?

If a kid
walk into a library..

there is no telling
what he will become.

Each of yous are on a
unique 'path' that will take
you in the direction
of a straight line.

A book is a force
that changes
the direction
of that straight line.

If you read a fiction book..
a science fiction book...
you'll end up on planet
Mars...and discover
there are no Martians on it.

What a waste!

You read the wrong books.


Now, what kind of books do
Scientists read?


How to blow up things in the lab?

Albert Einstein reads patents.

He read Chinese patents about bombs.

His atomic bomb is a stolen patent design
from the Chinese...cherry bomb!

If Albert Einstein reads...

he can blow up the planet!

---
Albert Einstein wrote:

"I was well aware of the dreadful danger for all mankind, if these
experiments would succeed..."

Then his Japanese friend wrote back:

 Katsu Hara, the editor of the influential Japanese magazine Kaizo.
The letter ended with a direct address:

"Why did you co-operate with the production of the atomic bomb
although you were aware of its tremendous destructive power?"



https://www.bonhams.com/stories/40225/a-closer-look-albert-einstein-and-the-atomic-bomb/

---


Fast forward to Ai..

The 5 people who head Ai are
well aware of the dreadful danger for all mankind, if these
experiments continue..."


Why are these Ai 5 people are continuing if they 
are aware of the danger????


I guess they got bored of coming up
with new computer viruses.

Ai agents are in fact..a computer virus,
just a little smarter.

How do you blow up planet Earth?


Go to the library.


(I heard Ai reads...everything!)


you let dat kid in the library
there is no telling what
he'll come up with.

The danger is from unguided AI. Some people are in labs where they 
usually blow things up, instead they are making AIs that will do your 
hacking. They are making AIs that will expose data @ Sony. All kinds of 
mock up AIs are in the laboratory. They're not talking about Claude or 
Gemini when they shiver with fright.

This is why they are continuing with 'official' AIs such as Meta & 
Midjourney. Efforts are being made to derail & sabotage these people who 
aren't taking care while constructing their AI. If you need a handy 
reference, all AI lessor than Siri are considered fraudulent.

To whomever it may concern:

This post is full of errors.

Seems like AI slop to me.

	Einstein did not invent any sort of atomic bomb.
Why would a German patent office clerk read Chinese patents?
How could he? I have no information on the ability of
AE to read Chinese.

	He developed theories that permitted the Germans
to start developing an nuclear bomb. When he learned of
this he and other scientists convinced Roosevelt to create
the Manhattan project which created the atomic fission bombs
used on Japan.

	Germany had been beaten before Japan but we found
out they were following the wrong track to a bomb.
	
	Read that fantasy post was a waste of time.

	I went in the Library to read all sorts of books
and became neither a fiction author, a humorist, nor an
engineer but sharpshooter badges in the Military only
take practice.

"nonsensical"???? I'm not sure which part exactly was "nonsensical"?

I looked at What I wrote and I couldn't find which part
was..."nonsensical"?

Let's start with the first sentence I wrote:


"Okay, this is how the book world works."

(nothing there "nonsensical")


Let me look at the second sentence...



"A 10 year kid goes to the library
to read a book."


(strange I don't see any there that is "nonsensical"?)

I looked at What I wrote and I couldn't find which part
was..."nonsensical"?

(i don't see anything below anywhere? that is "nonsensical"?)


Is Titus a name of another country??? A latin country?
I can have the whole thing reposted in Latin! French? Afganastan???


He doesn't know which book to read
