          :confused: I am confused. If they are unspoken, how come you just listed them? Aren't they now spoken rules? or perhaps unofficial rules? maybe self-obvious rules? newbie suggestions? :confused:

              well, he wrote them out, he did not spoke them; so they still are unspoken Rules of Posting.

                but anyone could then read them outloud or have a text to speech generator running on the web reading posts. They could now be read.... in fact.... [dramatic pause followed by reading outloud] there. they are now spoken. Of course... this does beg the question.... if a geek says a post outloud in the desert, and no one is around to hear, is he more or less eccentric?

                          The stone age is highly underrated. For example, you could have sat on the toilet for millions of years without the bloody telephone ringing.

                                  Not true, I have at least one 'fan' who likes to give me 1s. Not that I give a damn, anyone who wants to give me a 1 and not respond, is just a retard as far as I am concerned.
