Gosh, I thought rsc was "Ask the Oracle". He's up
at all hours, always logged on, and infinitely
helpful.

Subject: Re: [9fans] one reason ideas from Plan 9
didn't catch on

...The problem with having them on the 9fans list is
that the regulars
have already heard it all, and resurrecting the topic
just gets people
annoyed.
------------------8<----------------------
So to get help it's RTFM? (again)
Pray tell the subjects that won't offend.
This is the only game in town, kids.
Don't get me wrong, I'm new here, and I'm not an old
hand at this I just believe this to (potentially) be
the best networking solution for troll-hacking on the
planet.
I have tried several times to get 9 installed (then I
can ask more relevant questions ... such as why is a
raven like a writing desk? ;-)
I like sticking with original inventors.
I won't be the last with stupid questions, you can
quote me.
People are starting to see what the Plan can do.
May I suggest another thread such as "Ask the Oracle,
questions about Plan 9 we're sick of seeing"
:-)
All in good humour, my dear Sir.
All of your discussions have been enlightening.
TYVM,
