Such notorious posters as Robert Dewar, NYU academic and Ada compiler vendor, among others, rank right up there in forcing their irrelevant and queer opinions on more than three usenet groups, namely seven, which is the height of rudeness and bad manners. What follows is that the propagators are in fact consummate boors, and are best advised to "get a life" and to stop wasting everyone's time, including their own.
