Tom, I'm don't think we should purse this topic any further, we're from two
completely different worlds by the looks of it and we will never agree on
this.

That's a bit rude I think and quite insulting to a lot of people, not
everyone is as clever as you are.

That's is ever so slightly elitist, Java people talk a lot like that. So
your little sign off "OO, Naxi for the day' wasn't a joke after all. Are you
saying that people who don't know how cars work shouldn't drive?

Don't answer the question, I don't want to know what you think, nothing
personal, it's just that we're not going to get anywhere by discussing it.

signing off on this one.
