****** FLAME ON   FULL BLAST********

I the future, will whoever posted things like this (Dhrystone results)
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post them in HUMAN READABLE form? NOT in some
machine specific coded form that only a few machines can read? PLEASE!
Can whoever does this please learn a little manners? I would like to
read them, and consider it a severe problem that I cannot do so.


The only excuse for posting things that only a subset of machines
can read is if they are BINARY files or excruciatingly machine sensitive
(i.e. intrinsically non-portable) sources. Everything else should
be plain ASCII.
