Follow up to "We the Undersigned" ALL *NONTROLLISH* WW please read

Folks -

The earlier post to not respond to he who remains unnamed is a start... I'd
like to propose our own rec.ww "Declaration of Sawdust Dependence" In that
if you sign up, you'll abide by ONE simple rule. No response to troll
activity - at all! Don't give the bastards one pixel of satisfaction.
Politics, religion, sex.... Flame wars will be restricted to WW and any and
ALL topics for WW are AOK...

As an additional commitment to increasing the S/N ratio, I will make an
effort to respond to posts I feel I'm qualified to answer, and ask more of
my occasionally dumbass questions.

Takers??

OK, Nahm sucks! <g>

Seriously, I don't respond to trolls, don't make public *plonk* noises, and
sure-as-shirt just let the crap that inevitably crosses my screen roll off my
shoulders, down the gutter and out to the sewage plant where it belongs.

Standin' up and pronouncin' yourself 4-square ag'in somethin' is the obverse of
trolling.

I mostly lurk. When I've got something to contribute I do. Otherwise it's all
same-same to me - ducks or geese, s'no matter.

Thank you, no. I have quite enough things that collect dust already.

Nahmie,

Was it ISO-8859-13? I think I may have it reset to ISO-8859-1 now. Let
me know...

I may have done something in the last day or so to read (I thought) an
email. Can you "view->source" of this message, cut and paste and send me
an email with the nasties? Tings still look OK to me using Pan as a
newsreader, and I thought I made the temporary change using Evolution as
the email reader???

It's always right there on the shelf, with the blue bottle top. Right next
to the 6 other bottles of glue. ;-)

Mostly I use Original Titebond, because the inevitable squeeze out is
easier to clean up, and the glue that ends up on my shop clothing generally
washes out of my shop clothing. That, and I don't need added water
resistance for most of my projects.

If you meant Titebond III, then I'm totally unqualified to answer.

I DO like the Franklin Poly glue for the times when poly is appropriate.

I don't need anything else.

except maybe the $39 drill press.
But, that's all.

Well, the $99 wire welder.
But nothing else.

Occassionally some cheap air tools,
But nothing more.

The 'nastiness' is the MIME header for the "character-set" specification..
Somehow you've ended up with "ISO-8859-13" set. English is ISO-8859-1.

Doug,
WTF is going on? Did you change language sets, or catch a virus or
something? The last 2-3 days, almost every time I try to open one of your
messages, I get flagged with a request to download a"Pan-European language
set" of 1.8meg. for proper display. After I hit the "cancel" button a couple
times, I can see the message, but it's a PITA.

Yes, as a matter of fact, it was! I had just noticed that, because usually
the "header" at the very top of the screen(using OE as newsreader) shows the
same thing as the subject line of the message, but the messages that give
the problem just say "New Message - ISO-8859-13"

I go there for disposable brushes
Thats all I'll buy there

Well, there was the $219 14" bandsaw
But I wouldn't buy any real tools there

The $7.99 cordless drill is still kicking after a year
but I only go for the brushes

How have you found Titebond II? I have been using Lee Valley GF 2002,
but am not always so happy with it; it seems a little hard to spread and
the dark colour can be more of a liability then a benefit. Was thinking
about switching, but it could be me, not the glue...
