US Military Dead during Iraq War 1867IBM's mini computerslack thereof 1868 It's all I've had experience with. One pair of VAXen with a pile of spindles...

Kelli Halliburton The above is yet more off-the-subject garbage in a failed, pathetic attempt to disprove the following fact: "Verbal" is not a synonym for "oral". Usenet uses words; it is verbal. You folks on the a.f.c. side of this NEWSGROUP {well we might as well consider the two combined given how long these cross-posted threads have lasted} might be content to 'pretend' that you are debating or discussing things in a rational manner using the twisted logic you like to display here, but you will find that most of us regulars on the a.l.a. side don't fall prey to those simple primary-school tricks. I believe that if you will stop with the obvious deception and childish head-games, you can enjoy a much more lively and engaging discussion. Now, re-reading my paragraph just above, I realise that it may come across like I am being disrespectful and 'talking down' to you and I truly don't intend to offend you {unless you happen to be such an "evil being" that the offense is warranted ;-) }, but I am simply offerring an observation from an "arm's length" point-of-view and the above is as direct and clear as I can say it right now... and I don't feel like taking the time to re-write it. It is just that we see a lot of this same nonsense in our daily 'My X is better than Your not-an-X' flame-fests threads so that we are rather 'seasoned' to it, so if any of you are sufferring under the illusion that you can 'pull the wool over our eyes' to pound us into submission, please think again. Nathan.
