Why is it every time I see you post regarding ANYTHING at all, you're always
so negative?
Well, you know what they say, "Write what you know."
Post by BillEver consider seeing a shrink? Or at least asking your doctor
for some anti-depressants? Quit being so damn hard to please!!
"But I showed them. I had a lobotomy in the end."
But to answer your question:
For more than a decade, I mostly posted through my work account. As
it was a government account, I couldn't post messages praising any
particular business, as that could have led to complaints of
government favoritism or complaints that my bias had interfered or
was interfering with fair bid assessment. That I had nothing to do
with most bid assessment wouldn't matter.
It was marginally safer to post negative comments, at least on matters
within my technical specialty.
Overall, the situation led to the development of a mostly Just The Facts
style.
When I switched to mostly posting through a personal account, I started
evolving my style, but so far I haven't gotten too far beyond
Just The Sarcasm.

Well, you don't hang out where I post most of my mesages. Try sampling
some of my 20,000+ messages in other newsgroups.
