For those who don't want to wade through Usenet's own version of a
bibliographer's worst nightmare, I'd like to point out that I only
*quoted* the above tripe (for purposes of rebuttal, at that).  If
you want to flame someone you should probably start with Mr. Werner,
although  at this point I'm not  sure if *he* is the originator of
the above statements either.  :-)/2
