ive been here since '99 (lurked until '00)and ive _never_ seen bill
"flame" anyone. bill is brutally honest and even though ive been on
the recieving end of it more than once, ive grown to appreciate his
direct honesty. id just bet that if you were busted down on the trail
somewhere (no matter what you were driving) that bill ------ would be
amongst the first to stop and offer his assitance and that to me is
worth a hell of a lot more than usenet etiquette.

He's a Mark 1, Mod 1 peckerwood. He can be a helpful source of
information usually when that piece of information is something you
should have either known had you RTFM or is generally known to people
who do that sort of thing all the time. You want to do something he's
never heard of, well, he will make you feel dumb for wanting to, tell
you it can't be done, or probably send you on a snipe hunt. Often all
three with some insults for good measure.
When I was a lot younger-during the CB boom-we used to have these
guys who were "channelmasters". Romain and him are the
"channelmasters" of this group. They are a little reminiscent of Jim
Goad and Jim Blanchard's comic "Trucker **** in Denial", what they
really are is court holders so they can impress all the newbi's with
their beneficience, wisdom, and almighty power. CB petered out in part
because the FCC refused to effectively curb the channelmasters,
keydowncasters, screamers, and assorted goofballs. The good guys went
to Amateur Radio and the channelmasters who were mostly old pharts
anyway died off for the most part.
If these guys were "all that" they'd run their own businesses, or
failing that they'd have at least created a moderated NG so they could
really manage dissent.
