    fuckaity

    i posted two excellent replies to two
    bikes with electric problems (a husky
    and a cbr).

    i was there typing them both up for 2
    hours last night. they are all gone
    now.. gone... {moan}

    see, we do live in a benoviolent
    society.

    now, if the authors post them up again,
    i'll reply to them again.

    i suppose i should ahve saved them.

    Doesn't your client save outbound messages. And what is "Pan" anyway?

    ahh, a fellow dodododoer. we go through the same
    server and it like many usenet servers have a very
    low priority, run on shittest equipment and is
    normally setup by staff members (who can't live
    without usenet) in their own free time... and
    maybe at some sites without management knowledge.

    when it shits itself, i'd say they send junior
    gimptech to the computer room to unplug it and
    plug it back in again.

    i'm surprised the shit still runs. it's older
    than the offical internet.

    Do you think the Senior gimptech will do a better job of unplugging it and
    plugging it back in?

    i suppose so, but it gives the junior
    something to do i guess instead of
    fucking around playing games ;).
