looks like a typo, anyway

Let me say that I feel it is a bad thing to flame people who are in error.
And is a good thing to have this net to find the ways out of our errors.
For we all have sinned (and some of us are unrepentant). Let's take more
submissions with :-)'s galore and few (AT LEAST!) with some technical
contents. Now, to the business at hand:

I myself have a very low opinion about Pascal, but it is certainly unfair
to use it for collage or consider it an example of such... :-) No, it isn't
a multifarious collection of surprising things, but a very methodical and
consistent collection of restrictions and missed oportunities.

However, you may agree that in no discipline one may progress by simply
learning what others "see fit to teach". Let's hear for the old virtue
of going beyond that and getting *what one sees fit to learn*.

That sounds like a terrible curse :-) May your $paths take you some day to ALL
the sources in the usenet and be your pains as long and frightening as the lint
warnings you will get (How's that for a counter-curse?)
