If you entertain the notion that he is not a troll in the Usenet sense, he would certainly appear so in the classical sense when considering the leasurely speed and the time-limited nature of his comprehension.The problem is though I really want to understand this, and to see if it's really as reasonable as is said. And perhaps, if I (or anyone else) find a problem, then it may be remedied. How can I do it without trolling, when questions pop up in my mind that I want to ask?
"How can I do it without trolling, when questions pop up in my mind that I want to ask?"The short answer is you can't. -- "Trolling" is asking just about any question that might raise an issue implying disagreement with someone else's fervently held belief.
Either ask your question and ignore the ad hominem attacks or go buy a dog for a friend. Newsgroups aren't the proper forum for polite equivocation.Most accusations of "trolling" come from those persons most ignorant of the subject under discussion. These persons are easily identified from their lack of reference to *verifiable* facts and resulting conclusions drawn therefrom.
