And let's make it clear, "Radium" is a troll as much for his massive
cross-posting as anything else. He posted this to:
alt.comp.hardware.homebuilt
sci.electronics.basics
comp.dsp
alt.folklore.computers
24hoursupport.helpdesk
and he posted the same original message to a slew of other newsgroups, in
a different set of cross-posting.

NOw, the fact that he is "apologizing" does not negate the fact that
not only has he cross-posted massively, but he picks without any
real concern.

I cannot see any excuse for that. If the guy is so hung up on
"precision" then he fails at picking appropriate newsgroups, and
fails at being precise enough to figure out the one of a few
newsgroups where something is most appropriate.

Perhaps it's loneliness that is his/her real affliction ...

And he hates to learn; learning is a direct effect of being told
you are wrong. This whole thing was aimed at trying to prevent
people from correcting his blantant errors by using guilt as
the tool. This is a psychological manipulation that I personally
despise.
