How do you do the complicated quoting things ?
I think it is holding me back, i can't reach my full potential until i master this.

that doesn't tell me anything, hadron.

i suspect that you need several windows open to do the complicated quoting action.  and then copy and paste.....maybe a little deleting of the insignificant words?

No, there is a small button on each post that says quote.

but you need several windows open to quote several people, right?

No.  On the "post reply" screen, scroll down.  You'll find a reverse-order list of the last several posts.  Along with those is a tiny 'Insert Quote' link that will quote that post up in your reply.

Funny about the post-quoting thing; I always do it by opening multiple tabs and then copy-n-pastin' the quotes into one reply.

I probably wouldn't have used me given name so quickly here, but yeah, that's me.

morthaur, are you really a longshoreman?

Yes, in the port of Los Angeles / Long Beach.  I'm actually a fourth-generation on the waterfront; my great-grandfather was a founding member of the ILWU and was in the first generation to retire on a pension.

Where do you know callaway, ozy and Drunkard from?

We met several years ago on a site called Aspergian Island.

you said that you were too lazy to check in.  i take it you are not an ID.  are you a crane op?
me, i have five more weeks and then i have completed my five years in the hold.

[morthaur]

are you a crane op?

Nope.  If I were less lazy and more dedicated to working there I'd get meself into the clerk's union, since that's the only kind of work I ever enjoyed.  Maybe, subconsciously(?), I dither because me pop is still a popular supercargo.  It's bad enough that I have the same name as the previous four generations; do I have to do the same job?!   

[McGiver]

clerks certainly get paid well, but i fear that a bulk of the clerk jobs will be gone within the next ten years.

my wife is a casual and loves clerking.  i prefer to drive machines. 


is your dad a steady?  where?
