Re: Copy ][ Plus Abandonware Collection

["Quantum Cat" <quantum-no-spam@cotse.net>]

Hiya, Dorktor!

Is anyone else as amused as I am watching one of Tom's own whining about 
Tom's habit of editing stuff?  ;)

 *>Hi Michael (aka Thug),

 *>Thanks for the reply to enlighten me on this matter of the Copy ][ Plus 
5.x
 *>docs and advising me that you were the person that made them.

Yeah.  Thanks, Thug.  I hadn't had my morning chuckle yet.  ;)

 *>I received it EXACTLY as the text file that WAS on my web site -- from a
 *>collection on a CD I have.

Did you now, Charles?  So you assert.  But then there is no way to tell.  But 
wait.  There IS!  You always lie!  Therefore, you loped off that dopey 
Turlettes' lines and stole the "credit" for yourself.  ;)

 *>I never considered that the ending info was missing and never obtained 
that
 *>file from Asimov personally.

Let me guess.  You have elves that do that for you?  ;)

 *>Perhaps it did come from Asimov and was put on the A2 collective CD - that 
I
 *>obtained - which came from an old East Coast USA - Apple ][ BBS 
collection.

Perhaps.  And monkeys fly out your butt regularly.  ;)

 *>If the original file is on Asimov -- then there seems no need to have it 
in
 *>an altered fashion on my web site.

Why would THAT stop you, Dorktor?  You scattered your sector-edited warez far 
and wide.  

 *>So, I have removed it (both text and html files).

OK.  Now try some self-surgery and remove that mouse dropping that's rattling 
around between your ears. ;)

 *>I do read my email (every junk, spam and personal) and I reply to them 
all.
 *> 

Uh...  The Dorktor replies to all his junk and spam.  That's pretty pathetic.  
You lead a lonely, largely valueless life, Tom.

 *>So, you can contact me by email at either:

 *>cturley2@aol.com (or)cturley@mcn.org.

Just so you can't say I don't do useful stuff for you, Charles, I'm going to 
sign you up for more spam and junk so your life can be enriched by all your 
new email friends.  ;)

 *>I never received any email from you on this matter before reading this 
post.

*Translation* : I hadn't had a chance to read it since I'm only up to 
answering my spam from Sept. 12, 1999.

 *>I never received any scan of the Copy ][ Plus 5.x manual cover from you
 *>either.

*Translation* : Or at least I never viewed it.  I don't have a clue on how to 
look at email attachments unless someone with a brain is present to show me 
how.

 *>If you care to send the original file and scan -- I'll be happy to replace
 *>and/or add it to the collection folder on my web site -- promptly!

*Translation* : If you don't mind doing the work, I'll be happy to take the 
credit.  

 *>Cheers, Tom

I'm betting that fool Thug falls for it Dorktor.  Rest easy.  ;)
