I just want to clarify that Mike is not now (nor has he ever been) the SA of 3comvax. Rather, he was making a provocative suggestion (a hobby of his) and posting it to the net. I talked to Mike, and not only did he not unshar the posting in question, he did not know that source addresses on postings could be faked. Sorry about the net.clutter, but I could not let Tom's comments go unanswered, particularly after his flame about IBM pc postings in net.micro.pc. Tom, quit bitching about how bad your environment (braindamaged compiler esp.) is. Nobody forced you to get it, and no one wants to hear your complaints. If you dislike the USENET as much as your postings seem to indicate, drop off! (ahem, the above seems to be a flame... Oh Well!) Chris Olds {ihnp4,hplabs,glacier}!oliveb!3comvax!chriso (paths via bnrmtv!3comvax also work) The above views reflect those of the real SA of 3comvax, but only due to the coincidence that we are on a same-name basis.
