Your inability to read is not my concern.  It should, however, be yours.
(Hint: I've reported that I was "surprised and pleased" at the way some
things worked in Ubuntu.  Another hint: I DON'T USE WINDOWS AND I
HAVEN'T SINCE JANUARY!)

And didn't you "plonk" me?  I could have sworn you did.  Or are you just
another person who somehow thinks that saying you won't listen to me
will scare me "straight"?
