I'm sorry that you had a bad experience with Speakeasy. My experience with them differed from yours through two installed locations and 9 years. They're the best bandwidth provider I've ever dealt with, privately or professionally, and I have dealt with more than a few in each case. > Look you seem like a very intelligent person Gabe, I have but two > words for you; spell checker, please.

I'm tolerant of your failure to end lines at a reasonable character width (< 80) and I avoided singling you out over tofu email when I most recently mentioned it in passing, but I refuse to take even joking responsibility because you've chosen to use an MUA that irritates you and then bitch at me over it. I don't use spell-checkers because they're unreliable (valid, but wrong, word). I've been a bit lax in my proof-reading lately, but I count... zero misspellings in the text you quote, which I'll replicate here for reference: > Again I do, as I have often before, recommend Speakeasy.

What do you believe that I misspelled there? (Or did you accept corrections on it, rather than simplying removing the unnecessarily quoted text?) -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
