I think the point was that Andrew did provide an example, and was responding to the direct challenge of "where is *your* code?" Furthermore, he was making the point that the answer is simple and brief, a relevant point to the discussion. I notice that Andrew was not the first to go /ad hominem/ in the exchange. Isn't there a name for the rhetorical device where you challenge someone, then make them wrong for responding in kind? Oh, yeah - flamebaiting, but I was sure there was a more formal name for it. -- Lew --- * Synchronet * The Whitehouse BBS --- whitehouse.hulds.com --- check it out free usenet! --- Synchronet 3.15a-Win32 NewsLink 1.92 Time Warp of the Future BBS - telnet://time.synchro.net:24
