How about we all chip in and buy him a home computer and service from an internet provider, eh?

Cheers!!
I, for one, will miss the true love of my life! But at least I still have Lib and a few others I’ve professed my eternal love for…

Oh, damn—Poly was one of the people who made me not hate all religious folks anymore!
Stupid workplace.
Bummer.
Like yo’babe said, computers are cheap, and Web access can be had free. So Poly, we’re hoping to see you back here soon!
David, I don’t understand your objection to my statement of conquering GD. It was really a non-sequitur. I’m off to conquer Pfari’s General Dufour Message board. Those Germanic brats don’t stand a chance against my superior wisdom and logic - I’ll strike them down where they stand clutching brotwurst and mayo-covered pom fritz in their gray liederhosen and jackboots.
You are the reigning King of Great Debates, David, and to you I MUST truly say, “Das isch s’bescht!”
Yet to be reconciled with the reality of the dark for a moment, I go on wandering from dream to dream.
Ahem THIS is the link that belongs to the above post.

Come back soon, Poly. You’ll be missed.
Polycarp, don’t knuckle down to the man! March in to your boss and say “if I can’t visit the SDMB, I’m quitting.” Or start a union and chain yourself to the front door of the building.
Your posts were consistently high-quality.
We’ll miss you, Poly. Come back SOON!
Terribly sorry to hear about The Man crackin’ down on your use of the internet. As has been stated before, don’t let this situation keep you from coming back.

Hey, Poly, sorry to hear about the policy change. You will be missed by a great many posters here, as this thread testifies.
Hope to see you back soon.

Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.
You know, David, I’m sad to see Poly go and all, but I don’t know. . .a guy who can’t hook up to the internet at home is either a bit dim or a closet Amish!

Nope, but Dewaholic sure looks and acts like an asshole.
Uhh, Monty? I suppose it is possible that Dew was taking a shot at you, however
in the context of his post, he seemed to be talking about an employee at the institution where he and Poly have each worked,
I’m not sure how many web/SDMB folks are even aware that you have been known as “Chip” in the past
and it has been nine days since he posted this.
Unless you are in an active war with Dew that I have missed, it appears that you may have jumped a bit fast on this one.

Please advise Poly that Edlyn and I will provide whatever he needs. We will gladly go there and do the installations ourselves.
Actually Tom, I couldn’t care less about your take on it.
Either he was taking a cheap shot at me or he was taking a cheap shot at someone else; in either case, it was a cheap shot apparently based on dew’s opinion of someone’s looks. Again, in either case, it’s the actions of an asshole.
BTW: I don’t make it into this forum much. (Applaud if you must.)
Wow, Libertarian! What generosity.
Uh, I would post a whole lot more if I had a 62" HDTV. Installed.
(By the way, Lib, if you live anywhere in the Pacific NW I’d like to get together sometime - send me an email if you please.)
