word 2010 beta problems

[Peter T. Daniels]

...so if they don't want me to try out Office2010, it's their loss.

That is certainly a matter of opinion contrary to many I am sure.

You may think it's "gedorkian" to be concerned about the writing
systems of other peoples, but Microsoft doesn't, and also the
reviewers of my book don't.

 

[Greg Maxey]

Will your book work as written or will I have to read its description first?

Are you books intended for sensitive readers or readers in general? Do you
encourage readers of your books to intuit what you mean by what is unsaid or
do you try to write what you mean?

As you are the self appointed denouncer, judge and jury of other people's
written expressions, what is the penalty for the crime of expressing oneself
quite poorly?

Give it a rest, Greg.

I will do no such thing.

The clown will not appoint himself newsgroup courtesy and express police and
then hurl his insults unchallenged.

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

What insults has he hurled *in this thread*? AFAICS, he is honestly trying
to figure out how to get a Live ID. Do you have any constructive advice to
offer?

I did not pick the fight or the field. Mr. Daniels did.

<Do you have any constructive advice to offer?

No. But I do hope that he fails in his attempt. The content of his posts
are bad enough when he is responding to existing Word releases. I certainly
don't look forward to a new spate of his erroneous posts when he gets
started with Word2010.

Search the word "gedorkian."

Your antiintellectualism is a chilling reminder of the state of the
Rumsfeld armed forces. They either instilled it in you or failed to
extirpate it from you. Either way, it's shameful.

How can queries about dealing with new features be "erroneous"?

<Search the word "gedorkian."

Any hits on "gedorkian" in reference to your chosen profession or related to
me will follow the day you appointed yourself the newsgroup courtesy police
and launched your attack on my posts and methods.

Half truths, attempts to divert blame for the consequences of your own
actions, or dragging any or all other unrelated matters into the discussion
to avoid facing the truth are typical behavior of a base coward.

It isn't the queries. It is your pitiful, often biased, usually misleading,
and mostly arrogant attempts at answering them that are so annoying.

I guess if you like to continue to be a laughing stock then go right ahead.
Your notoriety isn't limited to this newsgroup. Ever since the topic of your
resignation and what you posted on your web page regarding it came up,
people started asking questions and they've been reading and commenting on
what you've been posting. It's too bad you've lost respect amongst your
peers over such a silly little comment that most would have blown off.

Personally, I don't think the 'worm' jokes are incredibly funny, myself. I
think it's a shame to see someone with such honor and integrity fall into
such a state of disgrace. It greatly saddens me. :-(
