*Savageduck proves yet again he possesses the mind of a child.*

His own statements prove, beyond any doubt, that Savageduck can't
comprehend that someone would want privacy from header aggregators on the
Internet, where I never hide who I am.

Remember, none of this silly childish crap happens on the *adult*
newsgroups, where I post as frequently, and perhaps even more so, than the
groups that contain the Apple Bigots such as Savageduck always proves
himself to be.

Neither Savageduck, nor nospam, nor anyone else who knows me (as I've been
on Usenet for decades), can't tell in the first sentence who I am, simply
because I don't hide it (and I don't even try).

_Savageduck's own statements *prove* that he has the mind of a child!_

Savageduck can only comprehend the chitchat model on Usenet, which is what
he uses, while I use the Q&A model, which is completely different.

For Savageducks' chitchat model (which many people use), he posts
essentially 95% to other people's threads and only 5% to his own, since
that's what defines the chitchat model.

For the Q&A model, (which I use), I post 95% to threads I opened, and only
5% (if that) to other people's threads, since I'm asking a question and
only seeking the answer (which I always summarize so that the tribal
knowledge is leveraged to all).

BTW, speaking of that, whom do you think *created* the URL for this ng?
http://tinyurl.com/rec-photo-digital

Do you think Savageduck created it?
HINT: He didn't. I did. Years ago. So long ago, it could be a decade for
all I remember. And everyone has leveraged it ever since. Just for like the
iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, etc., newsgroups.

Did Savageduck do *anything* like that for the team?
Hell no. It wouldn't occur to him to do work to help everyone else.

*Back to the Q&A Usenet model that Savageduck so naively decries.*

In the chitchat model that Savageduck uses, WHO you are is far more
important that WHAT you write. That's simply becuase you chit and chat
almost withoutj thinking. You don't prove anything. You don't have to. It's
just idle chitchat (some people call it the "coffeeshop" model).

In the Q&A model that Savageduck *repeatedly* proves he can't possibly
comprehend, WHAT you write is far more important thaN WHO you are.

All that matters in the Q&A model are two things:
1. The subject line
2. The body

That's all you need to ask a question, and then receive answers, and then
test all the viable answers, and to respond to all viable concerns, and
then to summarize the results, where we (almost) *always* solve the
technical problem.

I've been on Usenet for decades, where I've had to explain this to
Savageduck time and again, where Savageduck has the racist attitude that
many people have, which I summarize, pointedly as....

Savageduck thinks as if all Blacks are hoodlums; Savageduck thinks as if
all Jews are greedy; Savageduck thinks as if all Italians are in the mafia;
Savageduck thinks as if all Germans are racist, Savageduck thinks as if all
women are sluts; Savageduck thinks as if all teachers are pedophiles, etc.

The point is to make it clear, yet again, for the umpteenth time to
Savageduck that merely being black doesn't make you a hoodlum; merely being
Jewish doesn't make you greedy; merely being Italian doesn't make you a
mobster; etc.

And merely wanting privacy doesn't make you a troll.

I have had to explain this to Savageduck so many times, that I realized,
years ago, that Savageuck is completely incapable of *comprehending*
anything that adults normally comprehend.

Savageduck clearly exhibits the mind of the classic racists, in that he
accuses people of being what they're not, simply becuase they desire
privacy from automatic header aggregators.

Remember, *none* of this childish crap that Savageduck and the other Apple
Bigots do happens on the adult newsgroups that don't have these Apple
posters on them.

It's only the half-dozen Apple Bigots, where I've already proven many times
that Savageduck is one of them. Sadly to say.

Hence...
*Savageduck yet again proves he possesses the mind of a child.*
