Yes, but you have told us frequently - and I really can't see the relevance. It is not even as though it were unusual on this list. There are probably even a nonagenarian or two. Bound to be at least one octogenarian. And you _are_ heavy-handedly touting it. Your experience doesn't make your point of reference of any greater value than anyone else's. Many people go back a long way. You were obviously in the miltary and/or in the States, since the first commercial computer this side of the pond was in 1963. But many much younger people have more useful experience. Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
