I have just received a very abusive email from someone on this list. I had chosen to explain to him in a way he did not like that he was giving bad advice on a recent topic, and to explain why. This person decided to call me a nazi (plus a few other random insults thrown in, triteness, condescending, omniscient pretensions etc..) If it is being a nazi to explain to someone why the information was wrong then I guess I deserve to be lumped in with Hitler. I am writing to the list, just to say that if the risk a person runs when giving advice, or explaining something to someone who appears not to understand it, is that they will be called a Nazi then I shall not bother anymore. Perhaps he should read his history books, I probably know a little bit more than he does about what Nazi's did and still do. By the way, you shouldn't take notice of anything I say, I just quote from it all from manual pages and Introductory books on Computer Science. Amazing I have got away with it as a paid job for all these years. -- Regards Cliff Sarginson -- <csfbsd@raggedclown.net> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
