- Smartass college child responds with something about Bezier curves. Well, he

- Smartass college-child responds with drivel about X and why don't you go
- elsewhere, Mark, because us Really Intelligent jackasses can't be bothered
- with your stupid questions...

- Smartass college-child responds with highly-amusing-to-jackasses "Peeve"
- enumeration, indicating that Mark cannot play on the net like Smartass c-c
- as long as Smartass c-c is around to take him to task for it.
-
- Results: Mark doesn't get a civil answer from S c-c, S c-c gets off on dumping
- on Mark for having the effrontery to multiple-post. Smartass college-child
- pats self on back for being so very clever.
-
- Evaluation: Smartass college-child is the real "dweeb" here, not to mention,
- rude and impertinent.
-
- Recommendation: Mark should ignore Smartass college-child, and simply ask his
- questions as before. Not everyone on the network is quite so shitbrained, and
- some will even supply civil responses.
-
- Reading: Drop down to your local computer bookshop, where there are quite a
- few titles containing the source for what you want to do. There are several
- with included diskettes. I am not in my office right now, but if you will drop
- me a note, I'll have a look at some of the titles and ISBNs when I get there.
-
- Happy New Year, Mark, Grow the Hell up, Smartass college-child,
