Nice flame. Please don't apply for a job any where east of the
mississippi. I don't want to have to worry about having the remotest chance
of working with you. Ask a simple question and get bullshit back from people
like you. But then again, your mister wizard programmer. I remember you
telling me about the time you wrote that b*tree driven database engine
on your trs-80 pocket computer with 2K ram. And in assembler to boot!
I wish i had your attitude. what a bloody genius! I'm just filling
up the pages in my diary right now! Now i can understand how you got
that job with IBM and drive a 959(no offence towards 959 owners
intended). How i envy you.
