Yes it was you yank turd.

I hope you got off on starting yet another lwm mindless attack. Yes, it is not nice to continually remind others of their loss.

I do hope that what goes around --- comes around to you soon. Asshat.

Only lwm was ever that nasty --- hence the speculation back then and now that you are lwm. On the other hand, perhaps you are just a little turd from the same town that sounds just like him.

You are truly deranged. Just like your Bucky persona you can't seem to admit you might be wrong.

From my reading of LWM's posts he is from the West Coast; myself, I'm from Pittsburgh. And none of my previous LTE here would lead one to think I was from the West Coast.

Yet, you persist.

What's even stranger is the fact that my first post at the end of this post wasn't meant in any way, shape or form to start some petty little argument. Merely to point out an uncanny similarity (IMO) between "heru-ur/Bucky" postings.

But *just* like Bucky you can't see the obvious and instead choose to escalate an innocent post into something like a battle.

So go ahead, have the last word Bucky.

For a ghost, you are awfully consistent.

Either you were extremely close with your brother, to such a point of adopting his political identity, his taste in computing technology, and his petty little obsessions with specific people on this site.

LWM, it is not that my brother never mentioned you. He hated your guts. I think you know that.

I suspect that 4 brothers all sharing the same politics is too my for one of you yanks, but it does happen in families.

On the other hand, if you were wrong, then you might see how irritating it is to have him mentioned here all the time by people who could only be bested by him back when he was with us.

Mother had 4 boys and no girls. All the boys run Linux or use an Apple. We started sharing this interest years ago.

Okay. I guess politically everyone "shares" the same interest? The only item missing from your posts is a peon praising Lew Rockwell and Libertarianism in general.

By the way, hello LWM. I knew you would be back.

You can claim all you want that you aren't Bucky1 but this statement is too much. It is exactly what Bucky1 claimed - ie that I am LWM.

FTR that isn't the case at all. Others here know this to be true also. The fact that a so-called "brother" of Bucky1 gets fixated on LWM and also claims that my moniker is nothing but LWM in disguise?

I call bullshit on you. Either you were extremely close with your brother, to such a point of adopting his political identity, his taste in computing technology, and his petty little obsessions with specific people on this site.

Or your simply wanted to wipe the slate clean and start anew.

Either way, welcome back from the dead Bucky.

Dell now sells computers with GNU/Linus pre-installed. Worth a look to those who need their computer and do not want to "share" unless they give permission.

Even better; when you have that "old" box that is just "too damn slow" to use anymore, put a Linux distro on it and see what it is like.

Bucky1! You're back!

This praising of Linux is *exactly* something Bucky would, and did write on various threads in the past. I'm not dissing Linux mind you. It just seems so strange that two people from the same family would be so in tune concerning Linux.

Hmmmmm ...

Your back letters about cutting plastic credit cards was great.

Use the sliced plastic strips for rafts, tooth picks, and violin sticks.

Or, boat oars and frog chop sticks. Frogs love onions, and Mangos.

Frogs in a bunya tree amuses me. John Pilger eats frog legs and peas.

Toads make documentaries: Frog, bees, bugs, flies, monarch sore feet?

Er... where was Mumbai?

There is no mention of Mumbai in this article.

What could possibly explain this comment? Obviously, a failure to read the whole article could, but it just seems impossible that someone would come and declare: "There is no mention of X in this article" without first having read it to see if that's actually true.

I'm back from a gruelling experience of fixing a computer that had a horrible series of trojans and viruses (viri?) and it took killing the beasties with a complete reinstall to rid the machine of them. Just in time to meet our new whackjob, Zoltan. Whatever ...

For the record, I think I have seen the name Zoltan around before.

Around '97 I was working with a 386 box and Windows 95. I was in the middle of some important work (important to me at least) when a nasty new virus took down the whole box. All files lost.

At that time, I decided that the Linux I had played with was just going to have to be "good enough". So, I installed Debian "bo" and have never allowed a Windows product in my house. I am now up to Debian "Lenny" on one partition, with Debian "Sid" on the other. I have not paid for any software since and I claim that OpenOffice 3.0 is much nicer than the MS Office stuff that I sometimes use at work.

My wife surfs all over the net clicking on god-knows-what and my mother sends us both virus infected chain mail daily. No worries here. And she has never complained that her 3 year old computer is "getting slow". :-)

My decision was reinforced a couple of summers ago when I read about a poor bloke in London. Seems he was arrested for having illegal images on his computer. It looked like he was going to prison for being a pervert with a special interest in the kiddies. But, he had enough money to hire the best computer security firm in the country (or so the news claimed) to investigate the impounded computer. Turns out there were 100s of viruses and worms. Turns out that some bad guys were using his box as a server of illegal images! All this without his being aware --- just as most people I work with think getting another virus is just part of computing. The case was tossed out, and he got his life back. But I am poor; and I could not afford a defense --- so I'll make sure the box I am typing on stays free from others control. (if I can)
