That would be a great contribution to a book of funny putdowns. I couldn't help laughing. But thinking seriously, I think we would be well advised, in this list, to avoid putting people down, even in funny ways -- especially when we criticize of what they have said. We need to make an effort to avoid personal hostility when we disagree. You're not the only one this applies to. Eric too needs to respect the rest of the people on this list when disagreeing with them. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
