Like the recent posting regarding the 777 and Ada, I am confused at
how the quoted text below justifies the subject line.  I see
absolutely no correlation between the quoted text and the statement
that Mr. Paige has abdicated Ada.  In the same vein, I could easily
state that Mr. Paige has no use for Eiffel using the quoted text and a
similar subject line.

Are we merely trying to invoke flame wars here, and provoke harassment
by email?
