No, it's neither silly nor dumb; It's outrages! I suspect that he's getting
some kind of sexual gratification from all this. Almost all of his
(including a couple of other frequent contributors) initial responses are
meant to demean the original poster using snipes and grandiosity.
These three (3) individuals must have a miserable existance; Their lonly
desire to be noticed has no bounds. Newsgroups are ideal for these sorry
individuals to exercise their imaginary superiority, oh well.

And then again, he may already know and feel that it's counterproductive
to enter into such an arcane discussion. Your refusing to help becuase
he doesn't give a "why" answer is silly and a decision that is not yours
to make. You can ask but you cannont insist or intimate your own
opinion as applying to him. We all know how flawed your opinions are.

isn't interesting how small

of microsoft's operating system
and have the balls to persuade others
