Exactly. All Gavino does is post vague one-liners, presumably with the intent of generating discussion, by why he does that is unclear. Some people then try to read meaning into these and answer them. He is like the ultimate doctor mode in Emacs: sometimes he gets 20+ posts with questions that are computer-related counterparts of "HOW IS BABBY FORMEd?". A lot of people fell for this one too. Tamas
From: Luis Lepe on 25 Dec 2009 06:46 I advice you to read maxima code, for example solve.lisp. I enjoy some comments for example: this part in the code of (defun usolve ... Bullshit -- RWK. This is precisely the bug this code was added to fix ! So I think Lisp has a new kind of recurrence. Just on hollidays.
