How about: For potential news.groups: comp.lang.bill.wolf.lang.soapbox.nobody.listening comp.misc.idiocy idiots.idiocy flame.flame flame.bill.wolf flame.C.too.while.we.are.at.it flame.pascal.basic.assembler.and.anything.else.of.non.ada.origin.too comp.lang.if.it.is.not.ada.it.can.not.possibly.work comp.lang.if.it.is.ada.it.will.never.fail this.is.so.stupid.it.does.not.even.deserve.a.name comp.lang.good.grief.! Alternate piping destinations include: /dev/null /dev/stupid /dev/nerds /dev/jihad /dev/nuke'em /dev/flame/C /dev/flame/bwolf .....you get the idea.... (no :=)'s here) Anybody think of any other places to put this non-discussion so it's where it REALLY belongs? (*sheesh!* maybe we should fill the postmaster of hubcap's with complaints about "mr." wolf. Maybe getting his Usenet access pulled, or at least confine his posting range to local / state boundaries will save net.bandwidth for more productive activities.) +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Timothy D.
