Not a very charming e-mail and reflect little credit on the author. OK so 
Lindley was up a gum tree but does it require that sort of aggressive reply?

  Jeez,

      Do we really need to witness (yet another) tiresome, boring, halfwit 
  discussion, this time about who's known FORTRAN longer than whom?

      I learned about computers at Babbage's knee, and took Ada Lovelace's 
  virginity. Is everyone duly impressed? Thank you very much. Can we shut 
  the f**k up now, and get back on-topic?

      For God's sake, some people really need to get out more often.

      If there's any lament concerning the paucity of postings on this 
  list, I don't think jerkweed discussions like this latest one are 
  anywhere *CLOSE *to being a solution.

      "I've got this algorithm that runs rings around Eratosthenes Sieve 
  for identifying prime numbers, but it's *The World's Biggest Fucking 
  Secret.*"

       "*I've known FORTRAN for 35 years!*"

      "My balls are bigger than yours!"

      Give us a fucking break, OK?
