This comment reinforces the "sour old man" judgment nicely.


Slurrrpppp !

Are you a bottom or a top btw ?

You seem quite interested.


Just curious ! He's never let on. He could be a switch of course.

Didn't say that George- why do you choose to attribute it to me?

and a useless link proves your point how?

My god, you might be as stupid as Krooger. Have you been assimilated?


Now you are getting just plain boring. I though t much more of you than that
George.


What else do you need tutoring in, likker? Perhaps a primer on reading a
business letter, instruction in not gashing your hand when using a
screwdriver? I'm betting you do know how to breathe.

Default Can this ignoramus Graham "Poopie" Stevenson really be an engineer?

And this has to do with audio electronics, what?

Is that so Jootikins ?

We'll skip lightly over Poopie's exceedingly unprofessional lack of
professional gravitas.

I expect that if true, this knowledge must be widely available. How

about a cite
?

We'll skip lightly over Poopie's illiterate use of the verb "cite" for
the noun, "citation", or Poopie's appalling misuse of that concept

when
he means "reference".

But what sort of an engineer has never heard of Timoshenko's Strength
of Materials? Several hundred editions were published in the last
hundred years. It is a reference known to every engineer and techie,

to
every scaffolder and rigger. But Graham "Poopie" Stevenson is ignorant
of Timo!

Is there is anyone who was at college with Poopie Stevenson who can
confirm his claim that he qualified as an engineer? Not that a diploma
guarantees competence -- we've seen quite a few diplomaed quarterwits
on these newsgroups over the years -- but at least its lack would be a
start towards explaining Poopie Stevenson's ignorance on this and

other
matters essential to any self-respecting engineer.

The trouble with Poopie is not what he doesn't know, but what he knows
for certain that isn't true. --- with apologies to Mark Twain


those of use who are not mechanical or structural engineers will almost
certainly not be familiar with timmy's strength of materials.
electrical engineers are not required to study structures at length.

Jason


That may be true, Jason, but if you cast your mind back I think you
will discover that the reason pipes are preferred to rods was mentioned
in the first ten minutes of whatever time was given to structures.
Poopie Stevenson above admits that he is ignorant of an engineering
fact known by every hotrodder in the world. And, if he doesn't know any
hotrodders to straighten him out, he claims to have associated with
rock groups, so how come he lacks the curiosity in forty years to ask
the roadies and riggers why they use tubes rather than rods for
erecting stands? I mean, this idiot Poopie Stevenson has the monumental
cheek to lecture people who actually build their own gear on "science",
but he has no common curiosity, and no common sense either, just a
little bit of rote learning that he spouts as rules of thumb as if he's
frightened that thought will tarnish him.

timmy's strength of materials.


Timoshenko was an educated Ukrainian of Victorian times. He would not
have spoken with the strangled peasant accent later popularized by
Kremlin-dwelling Ukrainian scum like Kruschev. So the likelihood is
that he would have pronounced his name tea-moe-shank-ko, not
tim-mo-shenko. So I prefer Timo to Timmy, though I surely admire your
familiarity with the great man.

What was that?

Grammatic is perfectlt fine. Look it up fool.


"perfectlt" fine, eh? And I should take your word? :-)

BTW, please put a comma before "fool" when you call me that. Thanks.

This is war. Or, perhaps euphemistically, the "debating trade".

Damn.
