Sorry Jon, but if you weren't so staggeringly clueless you might be aware that long distance psychoanalysis via the Net is rarely accurate. I actually like Auckland, I lived there for a year even. My reference to "dorkland.waffle" was merely a throwaway piece of abuse that seemed appropriate at the time (and perhaps still is given the opinings from some of the rocket scientists in that part of the Net). If you were from Wellington or even PN I'd still think you were a spectacularly braindead idiot. I can't believe Ed Vielmetti reposted that to alt.best.of.internet. Gee Ed, if you're still reading this, thanks muchly. I'm *really* grateful you left my name on it. - k (not) -- Craig Harding kilroy@acme.gen.nz ACME BBS +64 6 3551342 "Jub'er lbh pnyyvat n obmb?"
