  Re: Building the A10 Thunderbolt "Warthog"
 
(...) That would work, and it has been done, but not for an A-10 Warthog. The model it was done on is Thad Jantzi's F-16 Fighting Falcon. (It would also work on most other aircraft in the USAF inventory - The F-15, the F-14, the F-5's front piece..) (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) 1. As long as a signature is short (four lines or under is best), it doesn't really matter what the content is, as long as it's not offensive in a way that violates the charter of the newsgroup you are posting to. 2. It may not be important (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) Another example of why this cc'ing of people is such an obnoxious habit. It confuses and adds no value if you're a frequent reader of the groups. (I rail against it whenever I get a chance, I really wish people would stop doing it. It's a much (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) <snip> (...) I didn't miss it at all. That's what my reply to you was about. I then went on to state another, related point: I believe that short .sigs (regardless of content) are much less annoying than long ones. (...) Even if it's not (...)

  RE: This will get someone upset...
 
Hi Marc, (...) Actually I sent to you directly and CC'd lugnet.off-topic.deb...ugnet.com. Check your headers. I removed the others (lugnet.admin.terms@lugnet.com and lugnet.faq@lugnet.com) because I didn't feel it was appropriate. Being in Canada (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
I really thought about posting a reply earlier, but I decided against it. Here's goes second round. Marc, the problem is your own, over something, that is it really does bother you as much as you say it does, can be simply overlooked by not reading (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) I already said that I really doubt Lugnet would agree with me enough to do anything about it. (...) You're missing my point. I mentioned the part of signature files that really are uneccesary --- posting your job title and position. signature (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) I generally agree with Marc on this one. I don't think there's anything LUGNet can or should do to ban or even discourage this kind of thing, and as freedom of speech has already been mentioned in others' replies, I won't rehash that reasoning (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
This is just petty, IMO. Who really cares? (Besides you, obviously.) So it is another 4 lines on a message, JUST SKIP IT! Here is a quote for you: "Love it or leave it." And as far as the bandwith argument goes - God forbid that each message be one (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
