Relax, Serge: Noons didn't write it, he just laughed at the joke. Maybe if IBM bozos spent some time reading instead of jumping into the usual ad-homine insinuations they wouldn't look so ridiculous?

I don't think I understand Australians evidently but are you calling Serge an IBM bozo for just asking what the inside joke was or is this some other reference to other IBM employees?

But given they all blurt from the same stable... And no: it's not going to stop because you might dislike it. |
