Bill is not a newbie. He's very carefully (some would say suspiciously)
maintained exactly his current nearly-complete lack of understanding of
C despite having asked frequently asked questions about it for more than
a decade, and having received large quantities of helpful answers to
those questions. The only way he could be considered sharp is if he's
faking his ignorance, which is in fact what many people think he's
doing. I'd like to apply Hanlon's Razor to him, but it's been a long
time since I felt comfortable doing so.
