 Hello Bob,

 BL> The other thing that gives me the shits is the way that programs
 BL> rewrite the PATH statement and put themselves at the head of the
 BL> queue! You know... you have windows, DOS up front... so they end up at
 BL> the end of the queue and the time to do a search quadruples!

 Better behaved programs use the %PATH% statement, rather than
 modifying your existing PATH statement.
 
 BL> Isn't this Splong? Have the Space Gypsies grabbed me again? I
 BL> know it's not Earth because I saw Charlie Perkins calling Cathy
 BL> Freeman a racist bastard on TV and no one on Earth is that
 BL> crazy!
 
 DM> The guy's such a fuckwit, no-one takes any notice of him
 DM> anyway. Even his own.

 BL> The part that amazes me, is how his genes survived the early
 BL> settlers. I'd have thought they'd poison his ancesetors, first. I know

 Typical, give the poms a job to do, and they can't even get that
 part right.

 BL> he'd be my first choice if I started poisoning Abos with strychnine
 BL> in the Toohey's Draft.
 
 Nah, just yank back the ATSIC funding, and then watch him go
 apolyetic.

 BL> Come to think of it... it's getting even a bit crazy for
 BL> Splong. I saw Richard Milat explain the backpacks in his garden
 BL> shed as "hearsay" evidence. On Splong, backpacks are mostly
 BL> silent.
 
 DM> And have no ears.

 BL> ROFL! Ear, ear... the eyes have it.

 Aye, Captain.

 Dieter
