Schalk The boss wouldn't touch this list with a barge pole... No, all knowledge of all things is embodied in which ever human is graced with this privelege (read curse) for the month.
The rest of us are best served by saying nothing, seeing nothing, doing nothing (except be in telnet and excel) and most of all never, ever, putting forth theories. Only the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but what he believes in can be ventured... In truth my days are silent. You don't have any positions vacant in sunny douglas do you? Anyone else? Anywhere in Africa? Promise I'll be quiet as a mouse, and churn out lotsa useful utilities, plus any amount of real work... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Schalk van Zyl Sent: 21 April 2004 11:28 To: U2 Users Discussion List Subject: Re: We need a web based Forum!
