- Hmm! Here we go again. You see Mark, I try and reply to as many post as
- possible, and sometimes my eyes and brain deceive me and turn '/' into '\'.
- But obviously you couldn't resist and had to make it personal again. I didn't
- even know who you were until you started this barrage of attacks against me.
- I make the most mistakes around here, but I also receive 10-20 thank yous
- every week.
-
- You on the other hand, just go around telling people they are wrong and making
- personal attacks on me like "your own unfamiliarity with C++" and the above.
- I have never seen you actually answer a question without saying someone is
- wrong and taking a stab at their intelligence. Sounds like you're here just
- to cause trouble. That's what I call an ass-hole. I thought that maybe this
- newsgroup had less asshole then the others, but I was wrong. I've found three
- already.
