I subscribed to this list for a while before I ever used Mandrake and the reliable, excellent help that I saw on this list had a lot to do with my decision to go ahead and purchase a powerpack. Don,t get me wrong.There are a lot of great folks on this list but civileme is nothing less than OUTSTANDING, I am shure ALL OF US have missed you.

Marc I'll second all that, except for the kiss on the lips thing. ;) One thing that's incredible about civileme (IMO) is that he always has the big picture in mind, and is not shy about sharing his views on the issues on the Mandrake lists here, especially if he sees someone else who may be producing a pov that doesn't have the whole set of facts. Some moderators put on mule blinders and have a tunnel vision about peripheral issues, perhaps in order to simplify the discussions on the list. In so doing, those moderators sometimes exclude peripheral issues that can suddenly and shockingly become central to everyone's interest, no matter how technical those list members may be; when prior examination of those topics could have sparked public awareness that would have headded off this sudden and shocking turn of events. This is how alligators sneak up and bite you in the a$$. The people that really should be listening to those topics have mule blinders on and don't see. (until they are shown; no matter how much they complain.) Civileme knows the difference between a topic that's truly irrevelant to the list population and one that is not. Being not shy about his political views in this forum makes for extremely interesting reading. --LX -- °°° Kernel 2.4.18-6mdk Mandrake Linux 8.2 Enlightenment 0.16.5-11mdkEvolution 1.0.2-5mdk Registered Linux User #268899 http://counter.li.org/ °°° Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Now that you've explained mule blinders don't overdo it:o) I didn't want to comment on Civilemes coming back 'cause I liked the way he's just carrying on as if he's never been away. Aside from that I still have good remembrances of how Till (Kampeter) roamed these same lists in the early times of cups introduction helping us out as best he could. And not forgetting what Vincent (Danen) does in the same fashion these days for his specialties on the (expertnewbie) lists. I'm sure there's more but they come to mind now. Let's give civileme the 'welcome back' he deserves and salute the other guru's still here and gone. Civileme, Hope you're here to stay, feels like a lost friend coming back.
