Hee hee! Very good.
I think what Mr. Twink was alluding to was CBF's own stated positions.
Something about hoisting on, well, you know the rest...

On the contrary. The surprising achievement of Kenny and friends has
been to successfully troll this newsgroup by (for the most part)
providing correct, helpful answers to technical questions. I can't
think of any other newsgroup where that could be done.

Are you thinking of the same Kenny I am? KM in particular almost
*never* posts anything here but abuse. Twink's articles are often
technically correct, but deliberately off-topic, and he certainly
posts more than his share of abuse.

I wondered whether this meant that Kenny McCormack had somehow changed
his spots, so I used Google groups to check his 10 most recent posts
to this newsgroup. I only found a few that could be classified as
answers, and I didn't find even one that was either correct or
helpful, though I know there are some trolls who would disagree with
that assessment. Less subjective, and more directly to the point
raised by Richard Bos, is the fact that I didn't find a single message
with any technical content. As usual, he spent his time abusing
people, not dealing with technical issues.
Has your ID been hijacked by one of the trolls?

Yes, I have learned the difference between nuts claiming to be
Nazis, and the real thing. For example, one of the attributes of
Naziism was to require members of various organizations, such as
the army, to swear eternal obedience to Hitler. This was very
powerful, because Germans take (or at least took) oaths very
seriously.
This has very little to do with the C language.

And yet another just this week stabbed a police officer (marshal Alois
Mannichl) in Passau/Bavaria.

No, it was a requirement to swear allegiance to the leader. When Hitler
died some one else took over as Leader of the Nazi party

I'll take your word for it. I seem to remember Adolfs name was a

No it was "Das Furher" or The Leader"

Spelling and gramar wrong:
"Der Führer" or "Der Fuehrer" ('das' indicates neuter, "The" translates to
"Der", "Die", "Das" vor male, female, neuter respectivly. This is one of the
difficulties with German grammar, esp vor non-native speakers)
I'm also not too sure about the facts, Google found several "dem Führer,
Aldof Hitler" as being part of an oath ("dem" being dativ male, another
major German grammar difficulty).
Hmm, with grammar we're getting closer to topic, slightly

Please?

No... It seems somewhat apt here considering some of the dictatorial
attitudes on topicality

Chris H said:
(You snipped the line where I said "please".)
So because you dislike what some people say about topicality, you're
going to deliberately pollute the group with discussions of Naziism,
which I presume even you wouldn't argue is appropriate here. Nice.
