Ignore This Post

This is just a test post to demonstrate how easy it is to put up a post (which is what I'm doing to a group of people right now).

Hopefully you're demonstrating it for a group at a show or something. But when I first read it, I thought it was a not-so-subtle hint to your co-bloggers regarding the dearth of their posts. :-)

Don't you love guests who are easily impressed!!!!

UNLESS... it's someone other than Rand showing folks how easy it was to crack in and pose as Rand...

Ignore this comment.

This is a test flame.

Clearly all the comments above and below are not merely false but dangerously false! Evil propaganda which if left unchecked will choke off all freedom -- nay, life itself!!! This must be corrected at length and in great detail, for which thankless task only I am capable and will forthwith undertake: . .the media ignores. . .as Thomas Paine said. . .the government knows. . .Hitler. . .Roswell. . .the IRS. . .their secret plan. . .probes. . .cover-up. . .FBI. . .the grassy knoll. . .did I mention Hitler?. . .electroshock. . .fluoride. . .

This is a test response to the flamer.

Mr. Maturin, take your addlepated tinfoil-hat fantasies back to Jack Aubrey's coattails where they belong! This is a serious blog, with serious posts and serious commenters!

Hahaha, what fun! I'm glad you didn't delete this, Rand.

What a creature you are, Stephen!

Mr. Maturin,

If you want to improve the quality (i.e. eccentricity) of your flames, you need to write in ALL CAPS!!!

WHICH I'M COMING, SIR!

Speaking of weird posts, I receieved the following at my day job email from a Mr. Tom Sheridan - tomparoonie2004@yahoo.com

"you and Sean O'keefe are 2 neandertals wanting to destroy this excellent instrument because of the Columbia disaster 14 month ago.
PLEASE DO NOT DESTROY IT BECAUSE YOU WILL PISS OFF A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY IN ADDITION YOU WILL HAVE TO BUILD ANOTHER TELESCOPE LIKE IT "ALL BY YOURSELVES WITH NO HELP FROM ANYONE!"

Mispelling _and_ the clincher argument is in all caps. Misdirected as well. A three-fer.

Posted by Hefty at March 24, 2004 08:39 PM

That's not a test.

THIS IS A TEST!
