(...) While I'm sure you're being sarcastic here, I'd like to point out that I'm not perfect like Larry. I do sometimes make mistakes, and in those rare instances, I am sure there are people who, rightly so, disagree with me. I'm pretty sure most (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
