Now now children.
If someone really wants to pick a bone with Dimitri, he is, as my father
used to say, "big enough and old enough and ugly enough to look after himself".
He's also quite capable with the English language, a far better maths
cowboy than I: and has a bloody marvelous price / quality piece of software
in Manifold.
I'd suggest kvetching directly at Dimitri at his not-so-secret address of
dar@manifold.net, and letting the balance of us poor working stiffs do just
that.
Amor y besitos,
Pat Waggaman
