worth worrying about, but on JOS general mailing list please

Gilbert, he is quite correct. maybe you could get JDK 2.0 (or Java 3 or
Java:the next genertation, or whatever Sun decided to call the bloody
thing) to only put the essentials in the java package and the rest in
javax where it should be, maybe you could even talk them into
multiprocess VM's.
But please from now on discuss this is on the JOS general mailing list,
I dont want to remove anyone. last thing I want to be is censor morum
people; this is the *last* warning.
Cheers,

Using the conferencing feature of your office phone, dial

conference them together. Put your own phone on mute
and listen to see how long they'll make small talk before
figuring out that neither one placed the call.
