Is English your native language?
For the last 65 years. My reading comprehension has been pretty good for 60.
"I'll do that, and post here when done" is ambiguous.
Any ambiguity would be in the eyes of the beholder.
It doesn't say what he intends to post here when he's done, only that a post will be made.
That's precisely the point I made.
You voted yes for the creation of csa2.moderated back in 2000, and you're trying to deride me for *politely suggesting* that binaries go in a binaries newsgroup?
I 'politely suggested', perhaps ambiguously, that someone was making assumptions.
I'll bet they were...I doubt if I ever voted to moderate *this* USENET newsgroup. I've been reading it since 1984 or so, and have never felt the need to use anything other than a real email address when doing so. If I ever voted for a moderated a2 group (if you've taken the time to find out if I did, perhaps you could take the time to give me some context?), it was probably to get the whiners out of this one. The pompous ones are no problem...
