you think that having mitch send this bad news himself is rude? i think it is beautiful. i think you are rude. i am also concerned because every photo i ever saw of you, mitch was in the background very close to a keyboard. i have a theory that you do not function without mitch at the keyboard. this makes me as nervous and rashy as using windows does. i am planning on screaming "whee!" so loudly when i get the ticket that you will be able to hear this in berlin. as for mitch writing his own mail -- he has a certain sort of elegance in his use of words that you and i both lack. carol > > > Sven _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
