Hey you! Jeffrey!
JA> [discussion of Michael as a wonderful person and macro programming
JA> genius deleted] Professor Doupnik is the one that has to support
JA> the end users of MS-DOS Kermit. He does not want to have to support
JA> the users that will become confused. ...As for Michael's comments
JA> that I should be a politician because of my work on Standards
JA> bodies, I will take that as a compliment.
You know what? My name isn't "Michael"!!! I've been given the name of
Michel by my parents and I'll tell you something more... That "genius"
to which you refer is born in the country - and we had cows and there's
something else! Excuse this figure of speech, but the more i read from
guys like you, the more it reminds me of this very bucolic, familiar and
peculiar scene which most countrymen must have witnessed in their youth,
routinely: i mean that very charming scene where a cow comes to a stop,
takes a break... lets you see a little bit more of the whiteness around
its immense eyes and then dumps a load of filth and spills a few drops!
Euh... I know, that's not very distinctive of me but i guess this very
surprizing flash-back was revived because of your kind words! Actually,
i think that would be a result of some day-dreaming errance triggered by
your warm support... I mean, i came to immagine the TRUE story of your
comming into the accademic world - you'll love it!: once upon a time...
after a hard childhood... you finally realized, one day, that everybody
appeared to first come at you with an expression of curiosity on their
face, and then, to move away as if they had experienced some bad smell.
(Remember the cows?)... Meuh... Then, that's where it all fliped: you
came to see a doctor, AT THE UNIVERSITY, and that's the moment when they
made you realize that you have your ass-hole right just below your nose!
Hence, explaining a few things... Quite certainly, you must have heard
this expression very often before: Shit-Head! Euh... And do you know
what more? I bet they just couldn't let you go and had no choice but to
KEEP you as a chimeric, amazing creature of mother nature that you are!
Hence, the academical life and the rest... %-o
Now, how do you like that for a compliment? Hummm?... Congratulations
for your "natural" sense of pedagogy, precious one! MoaHaHa!!! B-) X
Don't forget to show that piece of appreciation to every single person i
have no doubt you'll be meeting as you travel around - circus one!...
I'll give you compliments! Next time you better leave me out of this if
you can't think of anything else but your very own greatness...
While i'm at it, it brings to the surface another of those remembrances
of mine! 8-o "Politicians": from "Poly-Tics", "Poly" as in "many" and
"tics" as in blood-sucking parasites... Which leads me to this: if you
aren't willing to help then just don't be a nuisance to others and try a
more sensitive approach while you lurk around; more finesse wouldn't do
you bad, you know! Let us focus on something else, elephant one... 8-o

In more civilized words, i think Charles gives us a much clearer view of
the picture now... and the more i read from him, the more i think he's
right on target. Sing! Oh, most omnipotent confused one! Sing!!! ;->
[...]
Strange but true, i'm frankly convinced now that you have no business at
all addressing a DOS user here, actually! Condescendance is one of the
words i read and which sounds, ho but sounds so right when i read them
that i can't get it out of my mind anymore!... So, please: let us have
our little, worthless business alone, OKay?!? I see no need in having
such a stain like you lying around, dear wonderland hemorroid-face one!
Euh... And should you wonder what i mean exactly by the "one" then just
repeat in yourself my story of the cows; now a bit of your story too...
Bizous partout! %-)
MouaHaHa! :D )'

My deapest regrets to the other users but people ARE NOT playtoys!
