Nick is quite mistaken here.

Net Ettiquette states that you SHOULD snip all but the part to which you
are
replying. IMO, that part was:


had you simply called Jerry Bibuld
... a ****ing moron.


The three dots "..." indicate that this is *not* a complete or accurate quote.

If a publisher was habitually to pull a similar stunt by quoting only *part* of
a review of a book on its dustjacket, like this:

"This book is...very good..."

Instead of what the reviewer actually wrote:

"This book is not very good at all."

...then that publisher would soon be out of business.

This is *exactly* what StanB did to Bourbaki.

Now NoMo is suggesting: "just a joke".

I leave it to the reader to decide.

The above is ALL that is required in order to make the joke Stan Booz made.


Like StanB before him, NoMo stoops to *distorting* the rules of these groups in
order to *attack* Bourbaki.

Way to go.
