        As polite as I can remain, These are my words to you
        mister alder.

        POINT #1.   You don't have my coe.

        POINT #2.   I don't beleive you have any knowledge that is
                    useful to me.  Namely, if there does exist a
                    problem with the DMA the mfgr of any devices
                    associated would most assuredly want to keep this
                    private.  You might consider this if you own your
                    own business, like me.

        My newletter and knowledge only reflex your own ignorance.
        This is evidenced by your own comments.
 
        I don't care how long you think you been in this business,
        (computers, etc.) this does not entitle you to any special
        moronic additudes.
 
>> If you insist on keeping your precious code to yourself then stop

>>
        My code is available to the beta groups that are testing
        it;  Which it is testing now.
 
        The relevant importance of you -and any of the so-called
        group you contend to be working in- is most assuredly
        the best evidence of pathetic reasoning that abound.
 
        If you think that I have, in the past, made any statements
        that do _or_ are not well founded you and your cohorts
        are welcome to do me up.   Else tonight is the night
        in which the most metors will be visible in more than a decade
        my suggestion to you is to go outside and see which
        land closest to you.  My preference for a landing spot,
        centered concentricly, is about 20 ft. from you.
 
        Have a nice day.
        Write again.
