But the group is not called uk.rec.listening

Neither is it called uk.rec.dancing_on_the_head_of_a_pin

Went straight over your head, obviously. Others will understand it.

"Words are like a finger pointing at the moon...you have to look at the moon not

Your numpty humpty argument neglects the fact that words don't *intrinsically*
have any meaning at all. They *can* mean any number of things and most do.

However the general impression is that all 'technical' and
'engineering' at the BBC has been 'outsourced' to companies like
Nemesis... er Siemens. This has produced what could be said to be
"mixed results".

So the BBC ended up doing to themselves for the Germans what the Third
Reich could never do? ;-)

Probably fairer to say that successive UK goverments have done this by
pushing the BBC into what said governments have regarded as 'modernise'.

That said, the BBC still often produce superb output. TV progs like the
current "Rift Valley" series as an example. And the science progs on BBC4
that manage to avoid the "wobbycam and flashing lights" FX so beloved of
arty producers who seem to assume that no-one can actually understand
'science'.

And of course, R3 and R4 at their best. Still a pleasure and a civilising
pair of companions for life.

Slainte,

Jim

How appropriate in a reply to Amy's Pooch - some dogs will look where you
point, but most don't and just look at your finger!!

Then at you.

Then back at the finger again.

Goes on like that until someone blinks....

I gave you the chance to
express that this group would be better if I ****ed off

Leaving UKRA might be overkill, Kitty. You could just try to firit grow
a brain. ;-)



Aw....

Amy's just happy to be out of my ****ter - I can tell!


Yeah, Amy's got such a low opinion of herself that she regards any
recognition at all as a plus.


Yep, see elsewhere - Amy's had such a kicking all over audio usenet this
last couple of years he likes to come here to *offload*....

Know this, Amy: this is a UK group, anything a UK
national (includes tints) posts in it is more *on topic*
than you could ever be. As far as this group is
concerned, you were *born* off topic - savvy?"

As I said before, xenophobia is largely a disease of the lower classes.

Posting on RAO is so much in character for the two of you.

Not true. I've learned quite a number of reasons and methods to avoid acting
like a doddering fool. First is trying to stay on topic, and second is try
to only talk about something that you have personal experience with.

It's just as well that this is not a cosmology news group! :^)

It's still a UK newsgroup, despite your crackpot theories....
