Most of what follows is gratuitous and violent; the only
way to make it useful would be to provide a program to
generate it automatically; unfortunately, sport is a
tough thing to emulate...

No, you haven't, you blistering ur-liar. I haven't seen
e-diddly from you, and if news is outrunning mail it's
likely you don't know how to spell '/usr/ucb/mail' as well
as you do 'F'.
Criminy, I've already received bleeding fan-mail for swatting you,
but nothing from you continuing this discussion.

It's mostly because people on the net have learned to
listen, and ask questions, and I get paid for what I do
(including improving my own expertise by researching many
of the questions I answer here on the net, which I do on my
own time). What's keeping you back, safety-match-breath?

Anyone who does so is walking into the parlor of a
propagandist on par with Goebbels' dachshund. If I hadn't
been on vacation I might even have watched him dulling
his crayon scrawling this tripe onto the wall. Take along
your pooper-scooper, a good set of noseplugs, and your
VISA card, 'cuz he don't tell small ones and he don't
take American Express.
...the only thing the attribution mishap did was save Ham
from getting _his_ twaddle trounced at the time.
