You are very welcome Michael.

Hey I was trying to call someone the other day, and their line did not
accept incoming calls from a blocked caller id phone.

I hate that.

..... would that be ME? if so, yes, my phone blocks 'caller-id
blocked' calls coming in. i also have privacy manager, so that
those calls that come showing "unavailable" wont get through
without a message

Why are you spamming us about something that is only "new" if you
consider it "news" to read newspapers that are two or three years old?

Either you're showing off your ignorance, or it begs the question of
who's paying you what to advertise this way.

I'm not James Joyce trying to write or Ulysses, here, where I'd be
expecting people to devote years of their lives to decrypt this. I
don't know how to put it much more plainly.

The point is that these links are NOT NEW. They have been there for
MULTIPLE YEARS.

It's _not_ a "New Google Linux Search."

If you don't understand English well enough to understand that,
perhaps you need to look for some forum where the prevailing language
is one that you /do/ speak well.

blocked cause they hate you? or the person who owns the phone you were
dialing from? Does that all have anything to do with obsession or
stalking? Well, Linux could keep you so busy you won't know the time of
day, or the girlies... like the rest of us lot...

I think he's trolling, in some bizarre manner.

It's pretty evident that his English is sufficient to permit
understanding what I wrote.

He's apparently playing some sort of "passive-aggressive" abuse game.

That's what I was thinking last night. Then I started playing:

http://www.google.com/linux then plug in "suse i4k inspiron"

Google whack! And a very depressing one I might add. Am I the only

Chill out dude. I've been using linux for about a year and using google
and google groups regulary for years and I didn't know about it. Thanks Andrew.
I don't know what advantage you get from it (aside from putting linux in
the search phrase) but I'll find out.

What a wanker Christopher Browne is, or is that too English a phrase for
him?

Here we have a guy called Andrew who admits he is new to Linux and also
does not speak English too well and he gets responded to by a plank that
can't bring himself to say something simple like "sorry but that is not a
new feature" or better yet simply ignore the posting.

One wonders how the prat would respond to his children, assuming he can
find a woman that could put up with his condescending ways, if they ever
came bounding in with enthusiasm to expound the new found white stuff on
the ground outside on Christmas day?

Personally myself I'd call my child a liar because I live in england and
everyone knows it does not snow on christmas day in england!
