[nibbles and bits]

I'd like to apologize for the following bit of well-intentioned humor...
(but I won't... *grin*)

>Kindy [sic] inform me as to what is so "abrasive" about FoReM ST.

It's author from the sound of it... Personally, I find it redundant and
inefficient as a user (and co-sysop on a couple of FoReM ST boards), but
that's only a personal opinion.  I'll live.


>Perhaps you find it so because you are unfamilar with it.

Nope... I'm plenty familiar with it.  It still annoys me a lot of the time,
just faster than it used to annoy me when I wasn't familiar with it.


>Please send me your name and address so I can send you a users [sic] manual.

Actually, I have a friend of mine's (Paul Followell), but then, the note 
wasn't directed to me in the first place.  The original author's name is 
Neil Harris.  He works for Atari, and you can find his address at the bottom
of every note he posts to the newsgroup.
