I find it interesting that you wrote "parenthetically" inside of parenthesis... Did you get permission from the Minister of Redundancy Minister for that? -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of darrel barton Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 1:10 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Commentary on the seven words I'd like to apologize to EVERYONE .... if even one of you thinks that this was intended to be a flame! This was nothing but COMMENTARY on an attitude that is prevalent among people who hold support knowledge when approached by people who need help. I'm not immune myself -- when one of my end users calls and asks how to delete all clients East of the Mississippi, I ALSO take a moment to ask what it's about. I just take a split second to try to remind myself that I design the software, I don't dictate who uses it or for what purpose. It was just a commentary about something we all give into once in a while and nothing more. (Parenthetically, if anyone actually thought what I wrote was an actual FLAME .... all I can say is "Man, you need to unplug and get OUT a bit more! :)" ) At 09:00 AM 8/28/2006, you wrote: >Send redhat-list mailing list submissions to > redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx > >To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list >or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx > >You can reach the person managing the list at > redhat-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxx > >When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific >than "Re: Contents of redhat-list digest..." > > >Today's Topics: > > 1. partition changing (Anze Vidmar) > 2.
