I'm sure you aren't threatening anything here; I'm sure it is just a fit of
outrageous humour.
Right, Bernard?

Wrong, Bernard.  I don't "pick on people" - especially not in public.  (;o^)

Can't understand why in a club.

Perhaps this technical problem you talk about can be explained instead of
being "thrown" at me.  I'm all ears....

For a "Linux-focused" list there is a lot of discussion about Winbloze and
Bill.
I have come to see this "mailing list" as a forum for technical discussion,

abuse of $M etc., not always Linux-focused at all.

I want to hear all the proper arguments for using attachments, not just
"rah, rah, rah; no change".

Kind Regards,
