I, too, understand Mallard's frustration. I don't think he was yelling
at anyone on the list, except those who program for Mandrake. He just
wanted to let everyone else in on what he finds to be problems. Of
course, not everyone else may have these particular problems, which has
made several contributors to this outstanding list flame him. Flames
of individuals don't help us, even his flames, altho I understand why.
Let us try and keep a calmer outlook. Probably he does not know (as I
do not, BTW,) how to get a message directly to the people who need to
hear it. And know that it got there! (And neither does he know that
someone from the Mandrake command read his note anyway! But it is
probable that someone there has.)
Peace, brothers and sisters. In some places (not on Long Island) it has
been a hot summer.
