AARRGHHHH! It was a *mistake*, OK? Sorry for that!
Actually it was a glitch... a bug... a gremlin.. whatever.
As some of you might already know, I'm using Arachne for
sending/receiving email, with an experimental homebrew
text-based external mailer for the rest of email-related
functions. While a lot faster and convenient than Insight
(on my 286 anyway), it still quite buggy and sometimes
misbehaved, exposing another bug to fix.
That native language post was a result of such bug, it was
never intended for this list, it was a private mail to a
girl... err... woman who work for a new ISP which just
opened in my city. The actual content is a combination
of some flirting and business chit-chat (sort of), so don't
ask me anymore to translate it, OK? I'd rather kick you
out and ban your address than doing so! :-)
Besides, how could you tell if I really posted the true
translation and not just make that out? I'm not a certified
translator, you know ;-) There's no online translator for
Indonesian language yet, and I doubt that curiousity is a
good enough reason to learn my language, either from a
dictionary, or http://www.expat.or.id/ ;)
