    Hello All!

    Subj? Is this echo for robots only? ;)

    Sorry. Yes it is. You'd better hook up to one of the news groups on internet
    if you want to receive anything but totally *not* interesting file announcements.

    Hello, Björn.

    Replying to a message of Björn Felten to Andrew O. Shadoura:

    Sorry. Yes it is. You'd better hook up to one of the news groups on internet if you want to receive anything but totally *not*
    interesting file announcements.

    Then you can learn the secrets of making your penis larger too and making free money! :>

    Seriously, I guess we're all good in our Pascal knowledge...me, well, after being sick for a month straight, three emergency room visits and sleeping constantly, I'm finally getting the strength (and desire) to work on everything
    again.

    Later,

    No, thanks. ;) I hate Internet newsgroups. (FidoNet forever!)
    But it is interesting that sometimes I get 10-15 messages in this echo, sometimes 10-15 robot messages :(
    And, finally, comparing with RU.* echoes, traffic of PASCAL is _extremely_
    low. I.e. RU.DELPHI echo (in which I'm moderator) has about 20-25 messages a day, XSU.USELESS.FAQ - something about 50-60! :P

    Wrong theres been chat in here and help.

    I don't know how many people will agree with your "chat" definition
    when it comes to a reply to a message I wrote January 22, and you comm
    on it February 14.

    Just because posts are every day and every hour to your liking doesn't make it whatever you think it is. As to the delay folks do have a life you know. I've
    been in teh Bahamas/Atlantis when I won a trip there among other things.


    But yes, when people ask questions here, I always try to answer the
    but the echo still is a far cry from what it was some years ago, when
    there were 200-300 new messages every day and almost none of them were those incredibly uninteresting robot postings that we see here most of

    I've been in longer. I recall when it was 800-900 a day.
    Most folks have dropped pascal all together. So its a dying breed.

    I really think those are out of place in here-no one involved with programming in here needs to know about new file announcements or othernet information...

    Not many wish to know the language or really have the
    skill to use it anymore. Back in the early days this
    echo had 300 plus a day.
