There was a time when mailing lists were e-mail, and newsgroups were
newsgroups. Newsgroups have unfortunately mostly gone the way of the
dodo, and mailing list participants want the mailing lists to behave like
newsgroups.

And Now Google Doesn't Think Users Should Ever Set Headers.

Progress is progress.

One of these days I'll get someone to pay me
to design a language that combines the best of Forth and C.
Then I'll be able to leap wide instruction sets with a single #ifdef,
run faster than a speeding infinite loop with a #define,
and stop all integer size bugs with a bare cast.

More of my delusions:
