Very pretty, Tom, and a most creative use of a Weber. I'll bet that baby
smokes when ya play Bluegrass on it! Dueling Dobros might be fun, too.

However, it should be pointed out that this is NOT a binaries group!
Please post pics in alt.binaries.food in the future. My 2¢

No, this is not a binaries group, nor did he post any binaries. SURELY
you are not suggesting that you want this group modified so that he
cannot post a link to a website.

No link posting?

Even the worst of the meanest most petty groups see allow that...

<snip>

Actually, he did post a binary. Looking at the source that ended up on the
server I access (as if just seeing the picture of said dobro wasn't enough
<g> ) I find "begin 666 dobro_q.jpg" with a bunch of binary after it to
comprise the picture. Perhaps the administrators of the news server you
access stripped the binary. That's been known to happen.

Didn't even see the post on cox newsfroups. cox just drops binary
posts to non binary froups.

Close. I quoted a paragraph from a web-based discussion forum at
http://www.mimf.com/archives/homebuilt_resonator.htm and added the
text "Scroll down for a picture of the Dobro-Q," meaning "Go to that
webbage and scroll down."

>As far as I can tell, the OP didn't even post here.

Yup.

>It appears that Kevin tried to add a picture - but I don't think
>he did or would do that.

Nope. Didn't try, wouldn't try. I haven't a clue who Cramer thinks
he's talking to about binaries, or why the subject line of his post
("Weber Dobro") differs from the subject line of my post ("Dobro-Q
from a Weber Kettle").

Most likely has something to do with that imaginary killfile he's so
proud of but which doesn't seem to work very well.

OK, here is the way it happened.
Kevin post a message that said he made a Dobro out of a Weber Kettle. Had
a link. When you went to the site there was a picture of a Dobro made from a
Kettle. BUTT Wilson did not build it.
Then along comes a post from Tom with the message saying he made a Dobro
and it had a picture of said Dobro. Then Nick compliments him on his
endeavor and reminds him that this was not a binaries group. Then folks
chastising Nick for the reminder and so on and so on.
To all doubting Thomas' there was a picture

Wrong.

Correct on both counts.

Correct -- but then again, I never said I did.

from http://www.mimf.com/archives/homebuilt_resonator.htm

"I recently finished a "Dobro" Made from a Weber barbeque. I hand
carved a maple neck and made the sound well out of bendy board. The
top is solid spruce and the hardware is all standard dobro that I
ordered from Stew-Mac. It sounds great and will actually be played by
a friend in concert next month."

See the word "from," followed by a URL? See the quotation marks?

The post to which Cramer was responding wasn merely a copy of the
passage I had quoted from the webbage.

OOPS!!!

My news server reassembled the encoding and posted the picture (for those of
us that saw it the first time)

Sorry about that.

Yeah, I can see how that might be confusing. I meant, "Go to the
webbage at the end of that URL (pronounced 'Earl') and scroll down to
see a picture of the Dobro-Q."

Now that's an original rejoinder you don't often see on the Usernet
(tm).

BTW, do you have any idea how foolish you look when you reply to me,
after claiming for years to have me in your imaginary killfile?

Very foolish, that's how.

I pity KSW. I only read those parts of his posts which are quoted by others
who I haven't killfiled. Kevvie seems to bolster his positions with ad
hominum sleight-of-hand and innuendo or by dredging up antediluvial Google
archives. I wish you peace this holiday season, Kevin.

^^^^^^

You missplet "racists." And you're still reading my posts, in spite of
your imaginary killfile. Very odd.
