Given the long, long history of helping people that Tomas has on this mailing list, I think that if you want to convince anyone other than yourself that Tomas is a troll, you're going to have a *very* heavy lift (or a whole lot of lying) ahead of you. (Mind, by my personal definition - which is a bit different from the above, though probably still largely compatible - I'm not entirely convinced that you're a troll either. But you're *definitely* behaving in such a way that I do not blame others for reaching that conclusion.) -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. -- George Bernard Shaw
