Re: Alright you primitive screwheads, LISTEN UP!!

Uh oh Bill, it looks like you may be in store for some trouble,  
sounds like the Postal Service may have it in for you ;)

Anyways, I usually refer to people of *BSD projects their commit  
bits, is it ok if I refer to you as wpaul_at_
(i've been know to refer to "phk" for Poul Henning Kamp (phk_at_) in  
conversation, and mlaier_at_ instead of Max Laier on the pf side of  
things ;))

Thanks for the evil work regardless, and watch your mail carefully  
for a while :-P

Cheers,
