I tried to hold my own council, I really did, but Jesus, Jesus - answer the friggin' question! Your evasiveness is only matched by your hypocrisy, Mr. Monroy! I'm impressed. You should really leave this computer science stuff to the programmers and go into politics - I'm _serious_! You have evasion down pat, far more slippery than any eel I've ever seen. You want to answer the question now? Is it possible for you to answer a question posed to you in these newsgroups or is it genetically impossible for you to do anything but evade them? Here, I'll make it easy - here are two VERY SIMPLE questions for you: 1. Do you or do you not have a pre-release of the software you've been describing in such glowing terms all this time? Yes or No. This is a very simple boolean question and should involve very little thought on your part. 2. Assuming that the answer to my first question is "NO", then why are you wasting all of our time hyping something that even YOU have never seen? This question requires more thought but still deserves an answer, though evasion will probably provide an an answer of sorts (e.g. "no excuse - I simply enjoy wasting everone's time"), so you should probably bear that in mind before trying to squirm out of it.. [watch this, folks - he STILL won't answer either question. He'll claim that he didn't understand them, or that there were no actual questions asked, or he'll simply comment on this little bracketed aside and IGNORE the questions, but either way he will NOT answer them directly! What a piece of work, our Mr Monroy! Let's elect him to the senate. They deserve eachother so!] Jordan
