LOL! Your promise to move on fell a little short! You lasted exactly two
minutes! What a fool.

And then, having humiliated yourself again on rec.boats.paddle, you go
cyberstalking, trying in vain to dig yourself out with dishonest
interpretations of information in other groups that you can't even
understand!

There's no post like that on ott.general you lying idiot. If you are going
to try to smear someone, you at least need to reference it. You are even
more of a dishonest scumbag than I first thought!

Here is the actual post, from my buddy Olaf. To preface the quote, one must
of course be aware that at one time I participated in a thread about what
makes a good powerpoint presentation, and that I was highly critical of
powerpoint shows where the information on the screen mirrors the written
information provided to the audience. Now, here is the actual quote (the
post in its entirety) not the scumbag version posted by Tinkernhootowl:

Here's one for Kman,,,,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Presentation software: the harbinger of a useless business meeting

Show me a PowerPoint presentation and I'll show you a useless company
meeting. Electronic slide shows attempt to distract a bored audience
where the meat of a presentation would ordinarily entertain them. No
meat? Give them more sounds, animations, and transition effects. In the
old days, speakers used to keep their notes to themselves; now, for some
reason, they want to show them to the audience with fancy graphics. It's
as though they secretly know that their presentation sucks, so the
presenter tries to subconsciously make up for it with a spiffy slide
show. It just goes to prove the stage adage that a big smile and jazz
hands can make up for bad dancing.

The uselessness of a meeting is directly proportional to the complexity
of the PowerPoint presentation. If you want to quote me on that in the
future, mark it down as Jem's Law.

Yes, you stupid idiot, it's by Olaf, who posted a quote for me from Jem
Matson, because he knew I would like it. Because it supports my own opinion
about powerpoint presentations.

Or, you simply can't understand what is going on, because you suffer from
some bizarre form of paranoid delusions, which are so serious that you spend
time searching through usenet trying to make yourself feel better by
misinterpreting threads that I am involved in. Pathetic!

You said that last time, idiot.
