Dear Hans,

Please tell me you are not SERIOUSLY suggesting that nmap be placed in the hands of a beginner who has yet to learn the basics of paths and packages!

I am not a loony.  Why should I be tarred with the epithet
'loony' merely because I have a pet halibut?  I've heard
tell that Sir Gerald Nabarro has a pet prawn called Simon
- you wouldn't call him a loony!
