[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Overmod</i> <br /><br />"Gentlemen" (I use the term rhetorically): <br /> <br />BTW is a standard Internet abbreviation (although often seen in lower-case letters) meaning 'by the way'. Not in older dictionaries, but I suspect you won't find IIRC, LOFLMAO, or particularly imho in the ones you claimed to be using either. (BTW, I concur with the regal Oxonian take on these abbreviations, and on smileys ... er, emoticons ... too, whenever I come across them outside the context of Internet posts!) <br /> <br />Molson is nowhere near as good as Labatt Bleu, in any case. That's my opinion, and I'll stand by it. <br /> <br />I seem to have missed much of the context of this exchange, but unless Kevin can provide a scan of the official Canadian name-change form or whatever that proves he has legally changed his last name to "stheRRman", he has no cause to twit LC for using a pseudonym. If, in fact, he had cause to twit anyone for using a handle on a list. It's easy enough to find out real names -- if you want to -- with a simple e-mail off list. <br /> <br />I've been through the flame wars of the Eighties, and don't subscribe to many newsgroups because I don't particularly care for either trolling or flaming as SOP. Please eschew further behavior of that type -- at least of a person-to-person nature -- no matter how provoked you may become, or think you become, when someone else starts it. Didn't your mothers or whoever raised you teach you that sassing back just lowers you to the same level? <br /> <br />Junctionfan got it. Now let's see if some of the others get it, too... <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /><font face="Comic Sans MS"> <br /><font color="blue"><b> <br />Kevin Ilaqua <br />08/26/84 <br />(1) 514 296 7245 <br />Conductor, AMT.
