When I signed up to the mailing list I did not sign up with the hopes of becoming a "badass". I signed up with the hopes of learning something and perhaps imparting a small part of my knowledge that I have gained on to somebody else. This is in fact what I was attempting to do (and I am sure that most other people were as well) by taking part in the discussion about languages. I in no way was attempting to impress other people or make people think that I am a "badass". The free flow of information (hehe, we have all heard this before) really is what this mailing list is about. I, with my views and limited knowledge was just attempting to give as much as receive by continuing the discussion. > You know assembly language. Big fucking deal...... > ..........Don't blow your load too quickly. I am not sure exactly what you are attempting to get at here. Nothing anybody said was even close to "I know assembly language I am cooler than you are!" In fact, let me be honest. While I know the concept and could point assembly language out to you, at this time I couldn't even write a "Hello World" program in assembly. So too bad your above comment doesn't hold true. For theFree Flow of Information not Insults, Eian
