Oh good, so it wasn't a loss for them. Thanks. Btw I emailed them and also asked what kind of quantity of those floppies they have, and would they do bulk deals at the original price. 'For a friend'. Still doing my best to keep driving the price up. :) >Plato defined "MAN" as "featherless biped". >So, Diogenes handed him a plucked chicken. >Plato refined his definition to include broad toenails. > >Plato said that Diogenes was "A Socrates gone mad". Plato was a humorless twat. Diogenes sounds like a really cool dude. Today he would have been a hero-level philosophical Troll. Perhaps a great leader for Gen-Z. Certainly Twitter and Facebook would have banned him, and Amazon would be working on hunter-killer drones just for Diogenes. >Nothing that Diogenes wrote has survived, so we rely on third party >accounts, mostly by those who were adherents of others. > >Alexander The Great asked Diogenes what he could do for him. >"Move over; you're blocking my sun."
