I apologize to everyone, and especially to the readers of comp.lang.c.
When I posted my wild flame about sticking to discussing ANSI C, I
confess that I did not check to see what all of the newsgroups were
that the original posting (or my follow-up) were going to.

Certainly, I have no reason to object to discussions of (so-called)
K&R C over in comp.lang.c.

I do however encourage everyone to use ANSI C instead.

Again... sorry for my goof.
