If John Walkenbach is a excel genius? why don't he
upgrade his weak PUP program with a utility that creates
more than 256 columns?

HUH?

HELLO!

That's what I thought
 
They say there is no such thing as bad publicity

If it wasn't for that fact that your previous post brought Walkenbach to my
attention I would never have noticed his books and realized just how well
they are regarded by people who seem to know what they are talking about.

I'm going to go check them out tonight at B&N.

John doesn't work for Microsoft, and evidently he isn't interested in writing a competing
spreadsheet. I understand that Quattro has more columns. If you need them, that's where you
should go (rather than bashing John!).
 
Hi Myrna!

I disagree!

As Ken Wright has pointed out, each time this pathetic parasitic idiot
knocks John, there are swift and very glowing testimonials from people
who's views can be trusted. The result is increased publicity and
sales to the extent that Don Guillett has even suggested he might even
be John. I tend to discount those views as I really don't think John
could write as badly as this moron even if he tried.

But we have hopes of not seeing him around much longer. Internet
anonymity even using this parasite's approach is not quite as secure
as "it" would like us to believe. Some of us already have legal
remedies that will be pursued when "its" excuse for an human identity
is revealed.

I'm not adopting the standard advice to ignore it. The more rope the
better and longer will be the drop.

1. It's more secure than you realize.

2. One country's laws are generally impotent against private citizens in
other countries who have no assets in the first country nor any intention of
visiting it. Mercifully, those of us not living near Australia have little
or nothing to fear from the totalitarian and megalomaniacal tendencies of
that nation's judges.

3. Only John Walkenbach has a cause of action, and not much of one (courts
in sensible countries tend not to consider 'yo momma' epithets slander).

Typical. The sensible approach (which I'm ignoring by responding) is to
starve trolls. That's the *ONLY* way to make them go away. Rising up in
righteous indignation is a very effective inticement to them to stay.

The longer they stay, the more indignant you get, so who becomes the greater
fool?

Normally, I would agree with that advice, Harlan. But I must admit, I'm
finding this very amusing. These newsgroups are dull enough, and any bit of
comic relief is welcome.

No harm done. 95% of the people who read Jimmy's "Excel Guru" posts realize
that he's an idiot. The other 5% are just as dumb as he is, so they don't
even count.

John Walkenback,

"...95% of the people who read Jimmy's "Excel Guru" posts realize

even count."

Who does this refer to? I believe regular visitor sto this ng know who I am,
and I am most definitely NOT "Excel Guru", although I am one of the few
named"Jimmy".

And so it goes. There are times I believe I'm the only one here who's spent any
appreciable time in USENET. How predictable: troll flames X, X responds
sarcastically intending to say 'no big deal', Y takes offense at X's comments
taken too literally, and we have another highly successful troll.

At least Excel Guru knows what he's doing here.

If you feed the trolls, the trolls WIN.

Rolls? Did someone say the rolls win?
What's that? Trolls?
Oh, TROLLS....

Man, I better eat something...
