Tim Steele misattributed the following to me in volume 10, issue 763:

| > | A human-factors consideration: when I was making my living as a
| > | computer consultant a few years ago ...

Please, Mr. Steele, be more careful when you attribute quoted text!
Those were not my words but rather something I in turn had quoted from
yet a previous article.  I've never been a computer consultant even as
a dilettante, let alone as a way to earn a living, and I've never even
qualified for such a position.  I cannot let it be implied that I had
made such an outlandish claim.

My attorneys and my conscience now invite you to return to reading
comp.dcom.telecom.
