I read a few of your posts. Didn't know who you were. I didn't agree with much but you were respectful and sincere.

You're welcome here.

The more the merrier.

Thank you for the invite. Because I used AOL for email it seems I am on an introductory member basis - I assume that limited my postings?

You used it here too.

I might start a sock puppet decoder ring thread, for all of the aliases used by different people on these forums.

It's the two new unknown sock puppets that you need the ring for.

I don't care if people have had multiple IDs as long as they're honest about it. If they're playing games and hiding who they are, you know they're up to no good.

Calling the different names I used a sockpuppet is a stretch. I never posted simultaneously with two different account names. It is not like the name I pick for an online forum can not change like a SS card or my driver's ID.

It is not like these names I use for forums are copyrighted or in any way my real names.

I may change my name on forums. But I don't have multiple accounts on each forum playing games or pretending I am a group ganging up on someone or on a topic.

Only a little. I would call them retread accounts if you got banned, like at TOS, and came back under a new handle. Then there are sleepers or zombie accounts, extra IDs for making mischief. I see your point that you were actively posting (and not to disrupt) under each handle in succession. So retread is probably more accurate.

I'm not sure that being a retread is that much more dignified than a sockpuppet. These terms get used loosely.

I actually tried to be a retread at TOS. Tried to come back as "Sherriff13". But their system said "NOPE", and that was that. Never tried again.

Wait...are you asking for help in going back to TOS? Or just conversing?

To go back, just click the heels of those ruby slippers 3 times and recite, "There's no place like Rome, there's no place...".     : )

If you want to go back, I can tell you how. So could any number of people here, in private forum mail if you like.

Your problem is that your professional prose style would give you away. You write too well; it's pretty unmistakable. So you might get back there for a while but you'd be found out. And, unlike Goldi, Robinson tolerates no retreads.

This is true. Vic's style is pretty unique. And he's too cerebral for most of TOS. However for a poster to be hit with the charge of "RETREAD!!" (or troll) it would have to be assumed that Vic has made enemies of petty mitpickers there. Have you, Vic? If not, TC has his balloon tethered to Oz on standby to Kansas.

I never really thought about that. Given some of the outrage that folks have expressed at me, the heat of the invective, just for stating my simple (if at times detailed) opinions, I suppose that there are some people whom I make batshit crazy just by opening my mouth.

I think these are mostly matters of style. France is America's oldest ally, but a lot of Americans are allergic to things French, and I do write with more than a little garlic.

I recall you and I together on many threads about the election campaign of Sarkozy. Often, we were the only ones on those threads and were repelling trolls. I especially recall some threads with detailed comparisons of his campaign ads and posters to Reagan's 1984 Morning In America ads. Sarkozy created that same vibe with beautiful simple pastoral photos of lush French countryside. A brilliant campaign.

A sample of your writing on Sarkozy and France at TOS here.

And you still think there's a chance in hell that your Ivy League prose style wouldn't be noticed at TOS in short order? ‹/sarcasm

Liberator and I would have a better chance of retreading there despite our poignant and gripping tribute video to TOS and the heroic BobJ.

Still hilarious. Slapping that together in minutes was quite a feat. BobJ is immortalized forever.

(btw, I had NO idea you were so reviled at FR)

There's a temptation to create another Hitler spoof starring Gilligan and his ill-fated attempt to pirate LP:

Hitler: "I'm not worried about TPaine or anyone else taking over LP. After stroking the sysadmin and jingling my pocket I've got this in the bag."

Canary 1: "But Mein Gilligan...

Canary 2: "Mein Gilligan, LP is shuttering forever. Your fantasy of owning and running a canary-run regime on LP is KAPUT!"

Thanks, Stoner...I always thought that had TC keyworded "FREE REPUBLIC" the vid would have received more...ahem...attention.

TC is the director and producer and brains behind the operation. I'm just a mere concept guy. Between FR and LP, I've had quite a few lampooning concepts that'd have been pretty funny, but it's hard work. Lord know there have been enough characters, foils and events to create a few others.

Don't let him fool you. I mentioned the bunker mindset of TOS, Liberator mentioned the various Hitler spoofs, I located and torrented the movie, 90% of the script came from a single post by liberator, I figured out the subtitle format and used Quicktime 7 to hardcode the subtitles onto the video and put it on YouBoob. This happened over the course of a day and a half.

It was actually easy other than figuring out how to pin the hardcode subtitles onto the video. Could have done it in a few hours otherwise.

Thanks Fred. Glad you got a kick out of it. Back then we had waaaay to time on our hands. ALTHOUGH a Gatlin/Gilligan/Canary script has potential.
