However, not only is there no shortage of equally violent, prejudiced rhetoric coming from the 'good guys', but were Biff (or anyone else) to 'out' YSCOX posters for the same reason, I can well imagine the reaction. I decided Biff was a waste of oxygen and a complete f*ckhead when he made insanely ignorant statements about the death of Mike Tuxford. In fact, I recall offering to relandscape his face at the time. He made no attempt to 'out' me. However, during the Grokwars, I received a deluge of obnoxious (and sometimes threatening) emails, had to fight tooth and nail to stop a campaign to have my name associated with every damn troll on the Internet, had people trying to have Yahoo blacklist me, had someone use my ema...

Recs: 1 Had the pleasure of seeing the Perfessor and the boys a few times growing up in Toronto. They played New Year's at Maple Leaf Gardens a bunch of times, as well as my local high school. << Hands so fast, many times, you cannot see them. >> Before Neil, there were no air drums. ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message Board user "mitmosnar" under the following license: License:  CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike v2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------

Grace Under Pressure Tour, May 1985, San Francisco Cow Palace, 10 rows from the stage (on the side) direct view of this mastah at work. Hands so fast, many times, you cannot see them.

No solid state amps can simulate the tones made by a bunch of super hot tubes. However, some people at a company called Line 6 have managed to make amazing models of all the great tube amps that defy belief - even the pots act like the pots on the amps. I can't stress how unbelievably *real* the models sound - right down to the rattling reverb coil. I tried their gizmo - called a POD, in the studio. They had a Fender blackface in the room, so I tried the actual amp, then the POD. Nobody could tell the difference, including the engineer. How wildly off topic was that? ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by ...

You know, wires, solenoids, vacuum tubes... no use at all for these new fangled silly cons. This guy would be pushing knocking on the door of 90 about now. I'm a little sceptical, but freecode's appears to have nailed ledite, and I note biffy hasn't been around today. -- TWZ ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message Board user "ColonelZen" under the following license: License:  CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike v2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------

Message ID: 278994 Posted By: freecode_99 Posted On: 2005-07-06 08:02:00 Subject: Backinfullforce an attorney as well? Recs: 11 If so, I think I know him now. I won't be answering any questions about him though, but he should know: He might be from New York, fluent in German, and have a background which includes MIT as his alma mater. He might have a background in Patents, and be a former Patent Director for an Old SCO customer. In fact, if he is who I think he is, this might lead to more of an international aspect of the funding of this lawsuit. He would hold a EE and a BS from MIT, and a JD from Georgetown University, all of which are prestigious institutions. So, biff, if that is your background, why do you have to act the fool? Why not make a coherent argument for a change, or did the rallying of so many geeks truly catch you off-guard? Is your former employer involved in this litigation? Was it done at their behest? Don't you know that SCO Group now hav...

At last the querulous quidnunc has become so fevered with malevolence that she has *destroyed herself*!!! True or not, the execrable acrimony of her obsessed, afflictive "journalism" is an abhorrent hue of sickly yellow that may even be more repugnant than that of her brittle tresses. Let's suspend disbelief for a moment and pretend that OSRM had a fictional character created by a 666 eyed demon from the 9th circle of Hell summoned by IBM PR wizards working for them for several months. No? O.K., let's not. After all, Eggers, Ravicher and Moglen are all *in on it too*!!! How about the other alternative, that PJ is a woman working as a paralegal out of her apartment? Wooooooo!!! That kind of evil usually involves menacing finger wiggling and the stroking of piano strings!!! W...

My li'l bot alerts me that my name is mentioned on CKX, so I go over there to discover some would be Shamus wants to hang posts on me because I have used the term 'good luck with that' a few times. I figure "who cares?" and wonder over here to see what's up. What do I find?: Grokwar. *sigh* mrbutthole: please, for the love of God leave me out of your fevered theories in the future. I don't relish having to come here and wade through reruns of the first two seasons every time some halfwit wants to don the conical Encyclopedia Brown headgear.
