What is viatology?
If you're new to these newsgroups, odds are you've come across the
term 'viatology'. What does it mean? Viatology is the scientific study of roads. Using the scientific method to measure, report, and distribute findings for the advancement of knowledge in road-based transportation, one can lend experience and facts to a field that was previously considered a leisurely hobby. Though viatological studies are nothing new -- in fact they've been around for centuries -- your continued contributions to this field will help enable viatology to be offered in scholastic and research foundations throughout the world. If your goal is to discuss pavement types, road signage standards, border crossings, highway upgrades, or even lighting that surrounds the road, it's your independent studies and reports that will help the field of viatology be taught in the educational realm. For more information on viatology, including the etymology of the term, please refer to http://wwtl.info/#viatology.html . Cheers, Carl Rogers "Environment first, transportology second" ******** Worldwide Transportation Library (WWTL): http://wwtl.info http://m.wwtl.info [Mobile] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Complete coverage of international roads and railways. Since 2000, we have offered several photographs, videos and Virtual 360 captures -- to each viatologist & transportologist. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ******** |

>>Carl: *Could you please explain what zootology is?
It's Carl's "system" of English at work again. Remember that the V- word comes from "via-" + "-ology" and he threw in a "t" to join them. Well, now, he's trying to screw around with an established English word, namely "zoology" (which is correctly pronounced ZO-ology, as ZOO- ology would require a third 'o'). He's taking "zoo-" and "-ology" and using a "t" to join them, to get "zootology". I suppose this means we must now have "biatology" and "psychatology" and "sociatology" too. Or, could it be that like the entire collected body of Carl's work, this is nothing more than pure "scatology". You be the judge. |

Personally, I think Cal's site is the epitome of SCATOLOGY. |

"Carl Rogers" > wrote in message ... | If you're new to these newsgroups, odds are you've come across the | term 'vi<bitch slap>y'. What does it mean? Viatology (sic) is the study of equine excrement. That is because viatologists (sic) are full of horse****. What's it going to take to get that through that thick fairy skull of yours? RC |

If you're new to these newsgroups. odds are you haven't yet come across the term viagralogy. But, if you've read even two days-worth of posts, you've seen his explanatory post over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. But who the hell is new to Usenet? That would be like being new to vacuum tubes, new to phenolic plastic, new to shortwave listening, new to eight-track tapes, new to quadrophonic LPs. |

Actually, there is likely a whole host of young people who are new to Usenet (and the rest of the Internet each day). In fact, I wonder if modern baby books now include a page for "Baby's First Google". =P Granted, if baby sees the dreaded Vitaminology site under question here, it's like that she'll be scared (and scarred) by the 'net for life. |

I am really surprised that he is only spamming Usenet in promotion of his putrid site and not using the other roads-related forums like the Yahoo groups, AA Roads forum, etc., or joining and contributing there. -- To reply by e-mail, remove the "restrictor plate" |
