That's brillliant.

First of all I made the inital offer. Be honest bill.
You tried once and by that time I had decided there was no commonality
between what we do and thus ...we would really have nothing to discuss. That
and the fact that you , in lieu of experience, had decided to attack me
personally in order to support your argument. The thought of carrying on a
discussion about FCP with you seems.. well.. like a disturbing dream or
something.. It evokes the feelings I get when I have a high fever. ;)

Oh.. yeah.. that sounds like a real gas. Is there gonna be a campfire and
marshmallows? Group Hug? Burn an Intel flag? Oh.. that's right.. I think
they took that out of the procedures at the last meeting.

I don't talk about users.. just the program. If you did the same we may have
something to talk about.

You mean Murch sold the theater out..You gonna bring him up again?

OH.. Bill .. what is it with you.. This has nothing to do with people at
all. I don't care if God cut the Ten Commandments on FCP.

True. I am sure that a great deal of them are working for nothing or working
on their 'feature' or short or antiwar documentary. Snooze.
Bill.. people don't impress me. Editors don't impress me.. The points I make
are about hardware and software. That's all.

I'll pass.. With the exception of this newsgroup I don't think about FCP
ever and the thought of actually going to a users group meeting... sickens
me.. Actually .. users group meetings in general are a bore.

I have a lot of projects that I will be delivering this summer. No
vacation.. no rest until they are done.



Good talkin' with ya again.
