umm, WTF?  Why are you talking to me like that?

And why do you assume it's stuff I've never touched?  I've actually used Linux
quite a bit, and I've tried telnetting to a BBS from a bash shell (using Gnome
Terminal) and found that Gnome Terminal doesn't display high-ASCII characters
often used on BBSs.  That's all I was aying - didn't say I didn't like it..

Yes it is..  I'm not sure what point you are trying to make.

And I relly don't know why you call me a "sniveling little puke"..  Was it
something I said?

I don't understand your reaction..  Is this how you normally talk to people in
everyday conversation?
