Post subject: alt.autos.new-mini or alt.autos.mini ?
Archived from groups: alt>autos>mini (more info?)

Hi all!

Does anyone know the answer to this hypothetical problem because I am
getting fed up trying to work it out!

I have a very very simple filing system,


It consists of two boxes:
one labelled alt.autos.mini
one labelled alt.autos.new-mini


Now, if I had a message about my mini, where would I put it?

I don't think it would go in the new-mini box, as I don't own a new-mini.

What about if I owned a new-mini and wanted to know something about that?

I don't think I could put my message in the alt.autos.mini box because
there is one
which is labelled alt.autos.new-mini.

Pretty simple so far Smile

OK, now when I want to find my reply about my mini. Why is it that
whenever I look in
the alt.autos.mini box, it is full up with messages that must have been
delivered in error
as they are about a new-mini or arguing whether they have put the
message in the right box?

I don't go to the post office and put mail that is destined inland into
the overseas box because it just doesn't work like that.

It is such a simple thing, what am I missing?


It is like walking into a Butchers shop to find that although they sell
meat, you have to search through all the veg before you can get to it!

And before anyone starts.....

I have nothing against the new-mini, it's just being greedy trying to
take up two newsgroups!
(It is wide but then that is no excuse!) Wink

I don't reply to abuse so please don't bother, it is getting a bit
tiring on this NG

What you're missing is that some people believe that inland mail and
overseas mail should go in the same box together because at the end of the
day it's all mail. Some of these people also think that inland mail never
existed and so all talk should be overseas mail.

Ahh... but you see.... if you look at the two different types of mail they
are badged differently.....

Have you ever seen "par avion" on inland mail?? I think not......

(or in other words, this is a classic group and should stay that way..

fishead, not Fish Head. Simple enough to see the difference, I'm sure.

Not that it matters to me anyway, Mark.

Mark, crawl back into you sewer & take Tactile ( aka Bad Apple, Ossi Twit )
with you, so sad when these fools have to use different usernames to make
people think there are more of them than there actually is,

Hey Tatiele,
Isn't it amazing how easily these guys get riled up? They get totally
irate and barbaric if you don't believe in their one sided way of
thinking. I would have left this boring newsgroup a long time ago, if it
wasn't for the comical response from these lonely,lonely boys. Such a shame.

Let's see...no punctuation, statement rendered meaningless by apparent
omission of the word 'other', over use of 'You Sir' in futile attemps to
appear witty and/or intelligent. Yep, as I suspected, a classic case of
'Pots and Kettles'.

Well quite frankly your both suffering from some kind of delusional problem,
a bit like the guy who shot John Lennon? You obviously don't like verbal
abuse, but you abuse this newsgroup and think it's fine? Well I pity you, I
expect life's tough when your not wanted? And it's such a pity the BINI
isn't welcome here either, I imagine it really gets under your skin that
we're using the Mini name and keeping it pure Issigonis related, what are
you going to do next, get the mighty BMW to take legal action?

That's a bet you'll win as I'm not actually doing your course, whatever it
is.

You haven't made a single on-topic post here, but fan flames and abuse
people,
but *I'm* the fool? Whatever Twatiele.
