It is clear that Fateman with no evidence insulted our ability to parse Mathematica, as well as our character. It should be clear that we can parse it just fine. You can decide about our character. Mr. Fateman does not apparantly understand what we do with our tools, or how they work. Given the way this conversation started, and the way he is continuing, I see no good reason why I should explain any of this to him. -- IDB -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
