What the hell?
He's staying on topic, God damn it! This is not babble. May not be the learned discourse you've come to expect from the distinguished scholars around here (right, CRC?), but this is no babble.

Sorry, Professor Belousov, but if he's staying on topic...
...he sure is doing it in a very babbly kind of way.

Two points on-topic, one tangential illustration
1. That many people are intimidated into NOT learning how to use a computer, and
2. IT's problem is not just the people who don't know what they are doing, but the people who know just enough to really screw things up.
He then provided an example for #2.
THEN he went off topic, a bit, by delving into NT end-user hacking tips, but it was tangentially related to #2.

That's because I'm a technical writer
and a damn good one to boot.

Indeed, Dr. Conrad -
he's staying on topic. In his own kind of way. Just like His Excelence Dr. Brown or His Learned Lucidity Sir Oxley often do. And we both are off topic. What a shame.

He sort of did stay on topic...
But given the volume that he posts, and the fraction that actually is relevant, I wouldn't have noticed.
If he, say, limited himself to 3 posts per day and deliberately avoided whining, it would make a huge difference. But as it stands I just skip anything that he posts and wishes that Scott had a twit filter for me to use.
Cheers,
Ben
