My guess is that what you really don't like is what I'm saying and not what my posts "look" like. line wrapping, usually i don't bother opening your posts they are just a single line running from left to right, waaaay off the page. |

If you ask me, it's mostly because they don't like me and everything I do will look ugly to them. That's the breaks. I don't think I'll be able to help those folks with their problems.  Make note to oneself = do NOT open his fatuous posts again, for someone projecting himself as such a tekkie man if you don't know about line wrapping then I;ve got two bridges to sell you! |

I know how to edit the posts so I don't miss-attribute posters but other people obviously don't know how that'd done. As it goes, it's better to not write within quoted lines when using Google Groups. Everything comes out nice and pretty looking that way. See what I mean? Of course, if you're reading this the old school way, you're in for a nasty experience. == I don't get the complaint at all. Your lines are long but they don't go over the end of my page. Maybe it is the fault of the pages of the receivers. Your post above mine, is exactly the way I get it. I have changed nothing. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

A few years ago I packed up a lot of cooking stuff I didn't use and stored it in the basement, I still have things in the kitchen I never use, like some 2 dozen coffee mugs hanging from cup hooks in a cupboard, for many years we've only used the same two we bought in Pa. Dutch country some 26 years ago...

My granddaughter has told me that she will be here with a large removal van for all the kitchen stuff LOLOL It is quite a comforting notion )I think it might happen sooner than that though. She is recently married and they are looking for a house to buy. I bet my kitchen will be much reduced when that happens Actually when I retired I had a huge clear out of books and kitchen stuff.

The world and food will change radically because it will need to. You might desire to cling to these wasteful ways and keep your gas engines and grain fed beef but these days will soon be gone.

I predicted that the iPad was going to be a game changer and that Chromebooks were going to force MS to make Windows a free OS. You better hope that you live longer than the advent of electric cars.

I hope to die with a bellyful of prime beef. Various people have made predictions about food, yet we still have farmers and livestock. <http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20120221-food-pills-a-staple-of-sci-fi> Cindy Hamilton Cindy Hamilton |

Google Groups does not do this in quoted text. I don't mind if GG does not casually add forced formatting where there is none. Some folks see it as an insurmountable problem. Boy, I'm sure glad I'm not one of those guys. The other issue is, it is much more difficult to read a very long line of text. The eye gets lost on the long journey to the right. Page layout is something that publishers have done a lot of work on. I have my Firefox window maximized and your single line wandered and wandered until I got bored looking for the end.

I don't read any of dsi1's posts that roll off the page, he can easily correct that but he's either too lazy, too ignorant, or both. I also don't care to read untrimmed posts, especially with all the messy attributions. |

It's probably not a good idea to monkey around with the formatting in GG. |

I'm predicting that'll take 50 or so years for fully synthetic Star Trek foods to become the norm. My guess is we'll be seeing 3D printed foods very shortly. |

I'll clean up the formatting of my posts if you'll clean up your content and also refrain from posting drunk. I believe this is a compromise we can both live with. |

I consider that to be a misfeature. I find it really annoying to have to expand the post to see the context of the reply. It's nearly as bad as top posting. GG can eat my shorts. I use it only because I don't care enough about Usenet to bother with a real newsreader. Cindy Hamilton |

My guess is that most Americans are scared shitless when driving in the UK for the first time. Getting the proper driving etiquette of locals does take some time. I really appreciated that they moved to the far side of the road when they saw me coming. |

Everyone seems to be a bit crabby today. At least I have something to crab about with a food of snow to slosh in. Can't even go to town as the snowplow operator hasn't cleared the roads yet. A winter holiday in Maui would be nice but that'll have to wait until next year. ==== |
