In article <eAQ8f.6863$BZ5.507@newssvr13.news.prodigy.com>, leabre@html.com says...:-) .... you're here really claiming that Mike, in response to those who complained about the higher price, lowered the price from $90 to $89.95. Apart from not being true, isn't that claim also a bit absurd?Didn't he lower the price from something like $129.95 to $89.95? I see that you're the only one imagining this conspiracy. Learn the facts, then complain. Complaining about something your misunderstand or refuse to understand does nothing but promote your ignorance. As the old saying goes (by Einstein??): "better that people think you a fool than to open your mouth and prove it.". Thanks, ShawnBetter to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.Abraham Lincoln :)
This is an expression that occurs/recurs with some regularity. The Romans said, "O, si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses." (IIRC) Which translates as, "Ah, if you had kept silent, you would have remained a wise man." I wouldn't be surprised if they heard it from the Greeks. ;-) -michael Music synthesis for 8-bit Apple II's!
