It's so nice to see everyone on topic, relevant, and helpful.

You could have, at least, change the subject.

P.S.
Please note that I have not changed the subject, posted on topic (in fact, I have 
created a new topic altogether), and
that I am including the full quote of the original, irrelevant to this email, message 
I am replying to.

One cute way I snipped:

Better make that perl -e 'print 294/32,"\n"'

(in zsh for example, the prompt hides the partial line if you forget the

you can saw through the DIMM very gently. 2 128meg DIMMS,  one 32meg and

We're getting more and more off-topic by the moment, but I just had to say
something about bc (a Linux issue, isn't it?) - Ira, bc's default is to print
0 (yes, that's right, zero) digits after the decimal point

runing
echo "scale=6; 294/32"|bc 
will get you the correct answer,  9.187500

Because of bc's annoying limitations and syntax, I usually use my own version
of Brian Kernighan's HOC:

/home/nyh$ hoc
Welcome to the NYH HOC interpreter.
Release 9.1.1 (revision 119), Fri Apr  4 16:48:41 IDT 1997.

Someday I'll talk with Kernighan about making my version of HOC free

names for it's motherboard (for example, they had a board called TX Pro for

Hello Matan,
The problem is that the sender left me with no legitimate way to contact
him in private.  His E-mail address looked suspect to me.  He left no
contact information except for his voice phone number.

I'm copying also the list with this information.  I want people to
remember that contact information consisting ONLY of a voice phone number
is not complete.
