Bobby, a little due diligence is called for before mailing things like this (assuming it is from you). A google search for Joyce Bober turned up this four year old message on top: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2000-November/007904.html I'll tell my friend it was a hoax. And I'll send him that letter from Dave about Joyce Bober -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
