Last post - appropriate? - on IBM-MAIN is dated 30 Dec last year: Subject: Re: IBM Manuals From: Ted MacNEIL <[email protected]> Reply-To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2011 19:59:26 +0000 But I have evidence that he posted in the RACF-L list today!: Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 01:23:42 +0000 Reply-To: [email protected] Sender: RACF Discussion List <[email protected]> From: Ted MacNeil <[email protected]> Subject: Re: IRRUT200 performance question. - > Based on (1) a comment I seem to recall him making a while ago ... Is this the post you have in mind?: Subject: Re: z/OS UNIX file can't be deleted. (Was confusing and confused) From: Ted MacNEIL <[email protected]> Reply-To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2011 17:34:27 +0000 It contains a self-denying ordinance: <quote> But, I shall not be responding to any more bump on USS. </quote> He probably meant "bumpf" but I guess the spittle obscured his screen - or made his keyboard a bit slippery in places! This post is actually worth reading in full in order to see why the brigade deserves its name. Incidentally, just like the original self-denying ordinance of 1644/1645, it became famous for not being observed! Subject: USS From: Ted MacNEIL <[email protected]> Reply-To: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2011 02:44:06 +0000 To add insult to his self-inflicted injury, he even *initiated* this thread. Probably some post provoked him but he was trembling so much with rage he forgot to indicate what it was! Finally, the foundations upon which he bases his brigade headquarters, namely that I have no authority to make my claims, are very easily demolished with the following reference, one of many obviously: <quote> As part of the name change of OS/390 OpenEdition to OS/390 UNIX System Services, occurrences of OS/390 OpenEdition have been changed to OS/390 UNIX System Services or its abbreviated name, OS/390 UNIX. </quote> http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA1E211/CHANGES and search for "OpenEdition". Naturally "OS/390" can be understood to be replaced with "z/OS" today. I don't suppose even the brigadier would be so stupid as to argue with that.
