WHAT? Time has not changed you in the least! You're still as arrogant as
you've always been --- bullying your way around and then whinnying that
people have no respect and are Luddites... 

You must be a very lonely man without friends and in 20 years you'll be
an old decrepit man watching the paint dry!!

Just leave us all alone -- we know all about you now so LEAVE!!!

Mine comes from having moderator privileges on the list.  You don't 
have to like it, but this thread is now closed.  It is grossly 
off-topic for the list and the behavior of many participants here is 
out of line.

Please get back to discussion Fedora and related matters in a civil 
tone.  If that's not possible for anyone, feel free to take your 
discussions elsewhere, as the Fedora users list is not the place.

Thanks,

If you can't afford a carriage,

There is apparently an unlimited supply of fruit-cakes here who feel
they have a right to the last word and/or that anyone at all would
listen to their direction.

Interesting that you shift from a random misspelling of my name to
spelling it correctly.  Does overindulgence in THC do things like
that?

This is ground control to Dr trololo-Myers, you've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

Oh boy! as much as I enjoyed the first part of Clockwork Orange, the
second half bored me, and so are you.

Lucy dumped you when it was you time, and you are forever pissy.
Buy a pony. Piss off.

By originator I mean the thread that spawned this one, not the original
poster.

And *your* mandate to tell others how to behave comes from where?

I don't believe I have ever characterized you or anyone else as a
Luddite.  I have characterized you and others as being entirely
lacking in manners.  That wouldn't bother me so much, except that you
are self-righteous on the subject.  The self-righteousness does bother
me.

I think people just seriously have to chill out in this thread, what is
with all the ill wishes and bitterness? If you think someone is being
intentionally inflammatory, then do not fuel the fire by responding. This
thread and its originator are both out of place and needless.
