RE: uh, what did you say mr spules???Well, don't go too far out on a limb with your threat to shut the F-up, Artemus!
Obviously no-one on this board can yet come within a country mile of fully translating Sprules' exceptionally insightful, but equally incoherent diatribes. It's too bad too, because there are always some very insightful points there which are wrapped in that enigma which I would dearly like to swell my brain around.
Perhaps he just does this because it suits him very well as his own unique method of not allowing any imposters to assume his bulletin board handle. Who among us could successfully attempt to assume that prose and not be uncovered as an immediate imposter??
Good news right around the corner though, as I am currently near completion of the final prototype of an innovative new Language Machine Randomizer. It will sell cheap, and perhaps you would want to buy stock in this new company as well? I could use a few backers from among those who know of the inherent value of such a machine after constant mind-numbing sufferings having resulted from extended bouts of attempted decipherings of Sprules cryptic posts!
You simply feed Sprules' long verbal assaults of incoherent babble in one end of this cutting edge new Language Machine Randomizer, and out the other end you will receive several, completely unrelated story versions of fluent, well scripted prose.
Now, you merely pick the eloquently randomized Sprule's version you like best (whether it yet has anything to do with the topic at hand or not) and go with it. Everyone wins!
