"Who or what is Quidam?"
hehe...quidam (quiddam ?)
I dunno who he/she was. It was the handle of a freeper poster long ago who apparently had some "insights" into world happenings. Perhaps some more knowledgable FReepers could help out on who he/she actually was/is.

"No opus from him - he went out in a crashing fireball..." aaah....I wished I had seen it!
I was late to the A+ Bert party...but was very amused when I was told why he's A+Bert (not just plain old ABert)

Ol' Bert finally nuked himself.
IMHO, he was set-up by those who enjoyed pushing his hot-buttons then whining about his response.
Just the same, he shoulda known better.
It's not as though he wasn't given a "second chance" more than once.

Quidam was a poster in '98 and '99 who would make cryptic Nostradamus-like pronouncments which implied that he was an insider with special knowledge about the Whitewater investigation.
In the final analysis it appears that he/she was as BSer.

No opus from him - he went out in a crashing fireball... Big Mistake. If I ever leave FR, I am going to write the Opus of all Opus's.
To: Mr.Smorch
Bert was banned because he couldn't disagree without being disagreeable. He was only obnoxious when he was drunk. Maybe JimRob will let him freep again if he installs a BAC monitor on his computer that shuts down when he is above .25.
To: BARLF
Who or what is Quidam?This is a fairly representative sample of his oeuvre.

Someone really needs to write ballads for some of these guys.

A+Bert volunteered to be the American prisoner exchanged for Jonathan Pollard.

"IMHO, he was set-up by those who enjoyed pushing his hot-buttons then whining about his response.".........
Yep. Unfortunately there is a less than admirable group here who are like the little jerk kids in elementary school who used to squeal to the teacher about another kid throwing a spitball. We didn't appreciate those informers at our school, but they're at every school, apparently!
We used to take those kids out to a telephone poll, tie them to it, and start a little fire around their feet. Squealling dissipated, and the spitballs continued to fly with little harm done.

If I ever leave FR, I am going to write the Opus of all Opus's.Just remember that "Can't we all just get along?" has been taken...

A+Bert was one of favorites, but when his sailor language kicked in, it was bye-bye for a week or two. I'm sure he was the most banned FReeper of all time.
As a WWII and Korea vet, I wouldn't be surprised if he's pushing up daisies one day soon. I always respect my elders, and it will be a sad day when A+Bert truly departs...and I'm afraid we'll never know about it.

are like the little jerk kids in elementary school who used to squeal to the teacher about another kid throwing a spitball.No, I'm not talking about "teacher's pets".
It's more like the little wimp-jerks who would initiate the spitball battle, then tearfully claim innocence when they got drenched by a water ballon.
To: Rodney King
He was only obnoxious when he was drunk.That was anytime after 4:00 in the afternoon.
Ole Bert was easy to rile after dark.
He'd sure come after you with the obscenity-laced e-mails too.

I love your new screen name. Sorry you got tubed. Will I see you in DC on the 20th? I hope so.I would have liked to respond to you on the previous thread. However, that was deleted. I hope it wasn't my post that instigated that...
Regardless, I will be in Bermuda on the 20th...so "no" on DC. However, since you are a member of the FreeRepublic Advisory Board, perhaps you could inquire as to my demise. I would be interested in knowing what line I crossed.
