does not, as you said have that feature.

I'm not interested in starting a fight over this, but I don't
understand what you mean by Continuous Offline Operation in this
context.

no internet connection for an extended period.

Well Sir! Thank's for asking. I'm soo sorry for not being totally clear
on this... I mean that the user is offline for an extended period or
whishes that the software so is! Like on a dessert island in Polynesia,
or something. Prego!

that's exactly what i said.

Not exactly, And I responded to Mr. Cooper!

That's what *you* may think it means, but I'm asking android what he
means.

these days, that is an extreme edge case. a *lot* of things won't work
without an internet connection, including posting to usenet.

Hurricane season is approaching down here. While I would like to
think that no internet availability is an extreme edge case, I got
very edgy last year when my cable connection was out for a week.

Yes, and then when everybody's safe it can be nice to be able to use the
'puter the old-fashioned way.

the old-fashioned way is offline, using a dial-up modem for occasional
connections.

See? Here you snipped out the nice gentleman from Florida asking me for
a clarification. Down nospam, down!

Oh, OK. So nospam is correct this is an edge case unless one is
planning to replicate the voyage of the Kon-Tiki.

Well, I gave two scenarios. The other one was that the user might want
the software two be internet independent after installation, for various
reasons.

If I go to a dessert island, I want to go to a German Chocolate Cake
one.

You're more likely to get coconut ice cream. My guess is that a dessert
island would have a freezer.

the meaning is obvious.

No one else's meaning of anything is always obvious. You often
prattle on about something when your "obvious" meaning is not what you
stated but what you later say you meant.

it's not only obvious, but he confirmed it to be exactly what i said it
was.

Yeah, I just read that. I asked before he posted that, though.

you're as usual, argue just to argue.

You're as usual [sic], writing incomprehensible sentences.

You, as usual, argue just to argue.

The above offered just to try to improve grammar. No statement towards
either gentleman.

Well, if I am traveling that far, I'd like Boston Cream Pie, or
strawberries and clotted cream.

Just a joke. The sandy thing is a "desert". German Chocolate Cake is
a dessert.

I'm a sloppy typist and the spellchecker didn't catch that!

You do know, John, what [sic] indicates?

Of course I do. I realize you were pointing out an error, but there were
two errors, one of punctuation, the other, verb inconsistent.

Then I made a light attempt to show how both sentences could be
improved. Do you not think my phrasing of your sentence is superior?
