i apoligize if you were offended.  it wasn't my intention.


I was saying that sort of tongue in cheek :-)  Sorry I omitted the smiley.  No offense taken.
 
a technical error salient to the topic at hand was made.
i personally think that it is easy to get confused about inferno's
shell.  therefore, i thought a correction helpful and
appropriate.

the post wasn't personal at all; i'm pretty surprised at the
reaction.  i think that to be a good and helpful community
we can't let technical differences become personal differences.

Sorry, it wasn't meant to come off as true offense :-)
 

cheers.
