- Do I detect a note of hostility here? Perhaps paranoia is a better word.
- How do you know I was flaming you Bill? Never mentioned your name if I remember
- correctly. Interesting that you were hostile yet you still chose your
- inane send off.
- As far as references go, I referred you to the FAQ, Mr-you-better-not-misquote-
- me... Perhaps it is projection? I would prescribe rest for a persecution
- complex such as yours. You work to hard. Ol Ma Bell is making you twitchy.
- Incidentally, Misquamicus is an algonquin indian name & since I presume you
- exclude yourself from the illiterate ;-) category of this newsgroup, I will
- allow you to look its meaning up yourself. You may find it amusing.
- Interesting that you refer to me as "Mr Locklin" when there has been several
- quite obvious name-changes as of late. Nice to know the style has been
- consistant...
