He basically admits he's trolling the list or is out of his mind, I think you might want to have a word or two with him, he's basically in every thread with some insane nonsense. It's like having a schizophrenic at software design meetings. I had a few words with him, and he promised to stop with the yetis and all that. And as far as I can tell, he stopped that. I think we might cut him at least a little slack. Feel free to ignore him though. :-) Johnny sampsa <sampsa at mac.com> mobile +358 40 7208932 Begin forwarded message: From: Gregg Levine <gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com> Subject: Re: [HECnet] Can't connect to MIM nodedb Date: 27 September 2013 01:37:51 EET To: "hecnet at update.uu.se" <hecnet at update.uu.se> Reply-To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Hello! Just trying to confuse you, and it worked. And yes I am aware that both you and Dave do wander in the other sides of the street. (And you too Cory.) JCL is supposed to be peculiar. There is only one reason for that, and IBM wrote it to confuse us. OV is or rather was Office Vision, and it was a largely internal system setup to facilitate sending e-mail and stuff all over the Internal IBM network. Now they use Notes. No I don't want to know where that OS/390 came from. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

Well no I can't, but it fits my mood. Sampsa, what that kludge used for sending e-mail out to the people at IBM(!) was OV and it somehow kept working well into the availability of Notes. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." Huh? I'm totally lost, no idea what you're talking about..:) sampsa PS: I do actually have a few "mainframes" that I boot up from time to time on Hercules, I'm starting to like OS/390 especially, not that I understand it (JCL is insane).
