A Christmas Wish  
News Group: borland.public.cppbuilder.language.cpp

I wish that people would always post to the corret group.

I wish that responders would always trim their posts and never
top-post (Ed gets a pass because .... well he's just too old to
argue with).

I wish that I knew what Gambit knows and that I had Chris's
patients to apply it ... and if I cant't have Gambit, I'll
gladdly absorb Allister [desperately hoping that I spelled
his name right].

Then there's the 'old timers'. I wish that you all stroke-out
so that I might become a TeamB member ... nothing personel you
know . I just want the compilers for free and if I have to
sacrifice Ed in the process, he must have done something wrong
to begin with.

Happy Holidays!!

~ JD

Thank you JD.  Here's hoping Santa is extra good to you this year.

BTW:
Santa's always mean to me - right after Christmas I look in the mailbox and 
he's sent all these letters saying "please remit" :-(

Well JD seems like a nice enough guy and since
it's the season, I thought I wouldn't point out that this
is the language group and there's no c++ reference
in his post but since you seem to want to encourage
this behavior

It would have been better if I had said that I was 'counting'
on you to stroke first.

I wish that that had been intentional.

Any one know how to tie a spell-checker into the web interface?

Is that because you're next?

Quite funny. TeamB members are such suckers. They do every
thing for next to nothing other than an ego massage. Where do
I sign-up? Oh! That's right, one can't even volunteer to be
abused! One must be selected instead. You're all bent.

I'm    J E W I S H !!!!!!

Not really ;-) but what if I were?

> BTW: I wish you could count to 4 :-)

This puzzled me. I thought deeply about what you might be
trying to tell me and after several minutes ... all I can
say is that I wish that you stroke first !

Merry Christmas every one!
