Well, I can tell you that I personally use *NO* win 3.x based software.  I'm
using AmigaDOS, MacOS, '95, and a few flavors of Unix, but I do not own or use
any software based on windows 3.1.

Furthermore, even if every person in these groups used windows 3.1, *IT WOULD
STILL NOT BE RELEVANT*.

I'm reading this in comp.lang.c.  I expect articles posted to this newsgroup
to be about C.  Not about some specific system, or politics, or anything else.

What software I use is irrelevant.  I am using C, mostly indpendant of my
target platforms.

It may come as a shock to some people that I post and read this much news and
still have time, but I have sex sometimes.  I eat at least once a day on the
average.  I sleep.  I have a cat.

This does *NOT* mean that discussions of sex, food, beds, or cats is topical
here.

The original message was insultingly stupid and had no place in any of the
groups listed that I've ever read.  I would like the people who consider it
relevant to go away.
