Not even a simple "Hello" or "Hi".

Question 4, which stumped most people, was "Tell me a little about
yourself and your computer setup." I was trying to create conversation and
get an idea of the varying interests of the Apple II community, but all
the usual fools replied "Apple IIGS. ROM 01." Gee, nice talking with ya! I
must admit, for some strange reason, all the Delphi and Genie users were
more than happy to share their interests and chat about stuff. Maybe its
the environment...
