[] [#define ASBESTOS_GLOVES ON] Okay, I've about had it. My knuckles are turning various hues of red and white, I am quivering in the anger and frustration of it all. Quick! Where's my Uzi? "Why dear Mike are you so mad?", you dare ask? I am mad over the years and years of UseNet people misspelling the shortened form of "advertisement" as in the following example : >I just saw the latest Hammacher and Schlemmer catalogue (spelling?), and there >was a full page add near the middle for the new CDTV. ^^^ Okay guys, repeat after me : "a" "d", got that? "A" "D". Hey, I can't hear you! It's just TWO letters dammit!! A DDDD A A D D A A D D AAAAA D D A A D D A A DDDD Okay, you got it? Good, now let's keep it that way. No more talking about Commodore's recent "adds" unless you're talking assembly programming.
