But this is a discussion about the Interpress language, not about particular implementations." For some reason this sentence reminds me of the apocryphal discussion between a gas station owner and a would-be customer: Customer: "I see that your gasoline is $1.00 a gallon." Owner: "Yup." Customer: "Fred's gas, down the street, sells gas for 80 cents a gallon." Owner: "Well, why don't you go buy gas from Fred?" Customer: "Fred is sold out." Owner: "Ah. Well, we sell for 75 cents a gallon when we're sold out."
