Stop top posting and we'll discuss it. :D
Oh good grief, stop picking on the kid. Please remember he's about half
the age of most everyone on here, and the whole illiteracy thing is pretty
common (if not ubiquitous) in his generation.
I vouch for Adrian's coolness and great potential. I know him from another
list (8-bit Heathkit stuff) and I'm the one who suggested that he join us
here.
(ObHint: the 'u' crap drives me ape shit as well ;))
No criticism, just a note: don't forget the non-native speakers on this
(international!) list, they might get a bit confused by too much
unusual orthography and/or grammar.
