I hate it when this happens.

You're actually right. How about that? You see? It can happen, if you 
post often enough.

I was misled by the absence of "Re:" from the subject line in the 
article to which I replied. Closer inspection shows that 
asetofsymbols@gmail.com changed the subject line to remove "Re:" without 
indicating the fact, and that his article did indeed have a parent 
reference. I am therefore obliged by Usenet convention to apologise to 
you for my error in mistakenly identifying asetofsymbols@gmail.com as 
the OP of this thread. This is possibly the least gracious apology I've 
ever made on Usenet, and it is made in the reasonably certain knowledge 
that you will not understand why I am making it.

Fortunately for your attention span, I wasn't replying to your article, 
but to an article by asetofsymbols@gmail.com - yes, it turns out that it 
was in a thread that you started, but the reply was addressed to his (or 
her) article, not to what turned out to be your original article.

You are under no obligation to read articles that you don't think are 
worth reading.

It is certainly true that there is nothing unique in my article. Whether 
a 13-year old could have written it would depend very much on the skills 
and knowledge of the 13-year old. Whether anybody could have written it 
is much easier to gainsay. I doubt very much whether you could have 
written it, because you don't seem able to string four words together 
without getting at least one of them wrong. But that's your problem, not 
mine.

Whether the article is /valuable/, however, is another matter. If it has 
value to asetofsymbols@gmail.com then it was worth writing and posting. 
If it has no value to him or her, but has value to someone else who 
reads it, then again it was worth writing and posting. The fact that 
*you* consider it valueless doesn't really matter to anybody except *you*.
