- No you aren't. I was exaggerating, albeit slightly. alt.flame has been slowly
- eroding ever since first year PSU students were given net.access.

-
- No you aren't, but so what? You do very little to improve the SNR, which
- Graley and Witty seem determined to reduce to zero.
-
- >I'm sure you read those posts and have a hearty laugh,
- >am I right? Yeah, sure...
-
- No you aren't (right, that is). Neither Graley or Witty make me laugh. Very
- little here in alt.flame makes me laugh anymore.

-
- I think it does have something to do with just that. Braindead people post
- braindead articles. Have Witty's articles passed you by? You think that he
- should be credited with greater-than-room-temperature IQ? Wouldn't you
- agree that his painfully diminuative cerebral capacity is accurately
- reflected by his peurile and urbane postings?
-
- >Just because you make stupid posts does not mean you are a stupid person.
-
- No, but a stupid person is bound to make stupid posts almost all the time.
-
- >>Shut up and watch for a while - you'll see.
- >I did...I lurked for a good two months.
-
- Those weren't two good months, but you noticed that, apparently:
- >You know what I saw? Postings about

- >FUCK!", and once in a great while, something funny.
-
- Yeah, I know. Depressing isn't it. Where's Richard Sexton when you need
- him?
-
- >And you say *I* am responsible for the demise of alt.flame?
-
- Well, not single-handedly, but you have been contributing to it.
