Barbecue (alt.food.barbecue) Discuss barbecue and grilling--southern style "low and slow" smoking of ribs, shoulders and briskets, as well as direct heat grilling of everything from burgers to salmon to vegetables.

"To Peel or Not To Peel?", that is the question

"Top-post?!" What about the archeology thing he has going on? Just how
long is Comcast's retention for this NG anyway, ten years?

What an odd question. Google's archive is older than that.

Do you know what a rhetorical question is?

What an odd statement. Do you think I would have mentioned Comcast if he
posted from Google?

Being rhetorical doesn't keep it from being odd.

Google's archive is older than that.

Do you know that google attempts to archive every post and they propose
to do so for as long as it makes money for them? The fact that someone
responds to a long dead thread has nothing to do with the practice of
top-posting.

Noooo??!! Really?

Of course Google has absolutely nothing to do with this incident, since
the poster obviously did not post from Google; nor did he read the post
he responded to from Google. I won't get into why this might be
considered odd, as you are in apparent awe of Google's archive.


The fact
that someone responds to a long dead thread has nothing to do with
the practice of top-posting.

Good grief. Let me make this easy for you:

1.) Some guy replies to a post that was a year and a half old. He
top-posts.

2.) Someone else chides him for the top-posting. I don't have a problem
with this, as I abhor top-posting.

3.) Regardless, I replied--sarcastically--indicating that perhaps the
bigger issue was the resurrection of a long-dead thread. Further, to
indicate where he posted from I rhetorically asked about Comcast's
retention policy. Ironically, I did this purposely, so that no one would
assume the guy accidentally replied from Google.

4.) The above, apparently, went over your head and you responded, IMO,
ignorantly--even going so far as to mention Google. And although each of
your three replies to this thread failed to discuss BBQ, you still
managed to equate not discussing BBQ with "wasting everyone's time."

So while I do read this group for BBQ, I found your replies rather
ignorant. If you are elderly, or perhaps just not very computer
literate, then I apologize.

I guess then the answer to my question really is that you are here to
waste everyone's time. You could have said so, when asked. That would
have been polite. Oh! I'm so sorry. You haven't been polite in this
exchange at all. Why would I expect politness from you?

I guess I shouldn't, since none has been forthcoming.

HANL.
