Another self-serving & baseless charge that Brandon resorts to whenever (SO

Participants in a newsgroup, as in any other human exchange, are due the
courtesy of reading what they actually say. When this is silly or false
there may be no further courtesy due in reply, but the misrepresentation of
other people's words & clear meaning to make out that they posted nonsense
and/or lies is inexcusable. It happens here from just a few people, the same
one time & again, with Brandon a grotesque & habitual offender.

What about clear and truthful reportage of actual numbers of people's

numbers for March. Silly rabbit, lies are for kids.
I'm not about to take the blame for a lurker (Renia) [actually a
"claimed" lurker--how can we verify she was here if she never posts
anything? (as she hasn't for many years)] becoming fed up with the
newsgroup.

The proper number is 163. The mistake was made by not setting precise
enough sort terms, and capturing all the occurrences of the full name
"John Brandon" within the spreadsheet - so the extra 116 wrongly
included his name in subject lines and so counted all messages from
all posters in threads headed "John Brandon" and "Latham - but really
John Brandon".
The false high number is an accurate gauge of Brandon's nuisance value
in March, but by no means accurate as to the number of his posts. For
this, of course, I take responsibility, and I apologise to Brandon and

Well, fine, whatever.
I've decided not to post any more in April, anyway. *I'm* starting to
get on my own nerves (and this is rare for a self-besotted person to
admit).
But I only have 102 messages on my conscience for this month, so I
don't want to hear in May about how John Brandon posted 350 in April.

But I only have 102 messages on my conscience for this month, so I
don't want to hear in May about how John Brandon posted 350 in April.
http://groups.google.com.au/group/soc.g ... bout?hl=en
What about clear and truthful reportage of actual numbers of people's
postings, Peter? You must have tacked on at least 100 to my real
numbers for March. Silly rabbit, lies are for kids.
You are actually half right, for a change: the number of your posts in
March was indeed misreported by me at 279. However, this was not a lie
but an error.
The proper number is 163. The mistake was made by not setting precise
enough sort terms, and capturing all the occurrences of the full name
"John Brandon" within the spreadsheet - so the extra 116 wrongly
included his name in subject lines and so counted all messages from
all posters in threads headed "John Brandon" and "Latham - but really
John Brandon".
The false high number is an accurate gauge of Brandon's nuisance value
in March, but by no means accurate as to the number of his posts. For
this, of course, I take responsibility, and I apologise to Brandon and
to the newsgroup.

I'm not about to take the blame for a lurker (Renia) [actually a
"claimed" lurker--how can we verify she was here if she never posts
anything? (as she hasn't for many years)] becoming fed up with the
newsgroup.
Silly person. I'm not a lurker, just haven't been for a few months. Far
too busy on other projects. Other than that, I've been here almost a
decade and made some good friends here. Then you and your dreadful lists
and incomprehensible rudeness turned up.

Daniel Henchman was a New England settler; his wife was a descendant
of the ancient Rudhall and Milborne families in England. Just because
you are unaware of the significance of something, that doesn't mean it
has none.

Jenkins" [Marla Gibbs] on "227."
Even if I did manage always to be on-topic, I doubt it would fill me
