SeaSideSam was under the impression that there was sufficient info in his
posting concerning a misspelled work in one of bill's posts that all who
read the remarks would understand that they were make in jest.
obviously....
while i was a practicing professional computer programmer it was my policy
to work hard and play hard. a good part of the 'play' part was in the
company of other programmers of various disciplines, were our
conversations, professional and otherwise, were spirited and lively, and
always informative.
i visit several 'programming' groups. this one is... confusing. the
gentleman who taught me machine-level programming informed me one night
that i was a bit tight (we were at the time engaged in conflict (shooting
guns and missiles at those that were shooting guns and missiles as us) and
that i needed to 'loosen up'. it took a few more such experiences before i
became convinced of his wisdom.
maybe this group needs to 'loosen up'. and before the bombs go off, not
you bill. nor that fellow you are often sparring with. there were
several postings these last several days from people with serious
questions. i was relieved to see that these questions received serious
replies.
and it could be that the drugs the docs have me taking are effecting my
preception of what is real and what is imagined. did you hear the one
about the duck and the rooster. neither have i.
birds are mating outside my door. wish i were able to do the same...
outside or inside. not with birds (for those of you who are uptight).
have a good day.

No apology is required Bill.
Your posts are usually lucid, and minor spelling errors and typos can be
(and are...) made by all of us.
Anyone who would let the form override the content, is obviously more
concerned with appearances than with with serious discussion.
SeaSideSam is out of order.
Pete.
