Sorry, but, could you teach me in which language the subject is written? First, I assumed Japanese (in Romaji). But, even trying to do full error corrections on possible misspellings and other errors, I can't make the subject meaningful. Yes, "Ohta" is my name and "enpitsu" is pencil. But that's all I can recognize. ...... Aha! Yes, your meaningless subject reflects the content of your article better than mine. >I expect you to change the >topic again, but hopefully to something germane to the content of the >posting rather than another insult. I can't make the subject more insulting to you. You are the real genius. >>You are dumb. > >I can speak just fine, thank you, not that a handicap of that nature, were >I to have it, would make me any less of a person. You are mentally handicapped.

Are there any new book of Knuth published on April 1? >Thinking that, since you did not suggest that the ouput would be other than >the default for cat, I made the mistake of taking your words to mean what >they meant. To which you intentionally misinterpreted: "default for cat"? Have you checked your dictionary? A cat is an animal, a mamal. Oh! You are talking about computers, then "cat" should be a name of a command. Yes, on OS/9, "cat" means "catalog", something like "ls" of UNIX. Or, on UNIX, "cat" means something different. It is a name of a photo typesetter. But, it should have been obvious from the context that "cat" is "catalog". The default for "cat" is the current drive. Now, I admit that I can't make my article more laughable than yours. So, I discontinue. You have finally won. Masataka Ohta
