OK, we exchanged some words, now we are even.
After I posted, I was a little bit regret. When I didn't
see your response, I felt more sorry.
Thanks Godness, you are back, now we are even, I feel better now.
You are big scientist working at NOAA with Government
huge funding and high speed machines and super information
highway, so you can afford setting a prize for the first
one knows 'cd,cur=cur' after your day-long figuring.
I have to use a MacPlus to log on at 1200 bps modem,
paid EROLS monthly for internet access, use only non graphics
interface to read the newsgroup. Reading one post costs me
huge times and money. So I'm always disappointed if that post
is useless. You asked my name and identity, I have put it
to all my post. Ding is my name, official one. I have no
choice because that was given by my mother just as you
suggested. Are you happy now? I'm a ex-student with no
job. I hope one day, I can sit inside huge government
office mansion, access internet as long as I want, post
anything as long I like, just like you. As now I cannot
do like you. I do not have that many titles as you have.
I donot have HTTP, GOV, UNIVERSITY, FAX,... I only have
one thing in your list, that is phone number. My phone number
is 428-9009. Have you got enough of my identity?
Thanks for your posts. The good thing from this incident is
exactly as I expected. Although both you and I might lost
some dignity, I am sure junk posts will be less. I bet you
will think again when you want to set this kind of prize again.
If you had just asked 'how to get the cross-platform PWD in IDL?',
I would not complain at all and would help you without a doubt.
But the thing is YOU KNEW THE ANSWER!
Anyway take it easy! You have the right and technology to
post anything you want. If you are not happy with my words,
just take them as a grain of salt.
Thanks again.
Ding
