Dear Scott Treacy [S.P.Treacy@scotborders.co.uk],



    In response to your insistence that Java has already "arrived", I

    Your reply reminds me of Woody Allen in "Bananas", when he gets 
elected the first revolutionary president of the newly formed central 
american banana republic.

    After the terrible civil war, he wants everyone to have clean 
underwear from now on, so his first decree is that everyone should wear 
their underpants on the _outside_, to allow for easy checking.  After a 
huge civil war, to depose the dictatorship, all the guerrilas' jaws drop 
open, and they look at eachother as if to say "Uh, oh...".
                                                          >>


    In reply you write:

    "WHAT PLANET DO YOU COME FROM???? or should I ask what drugs you are 
using????  What the hell has all this got to do with JAVA BOOKS AVAILIABLE 
SOON!!!!  What has Woody Allen got to do with JAVA?!?!?!!??"

    My answers are:

    * Earth
    * Nescafe, and Marlboro Lights
    * Nop, _I_ don't have a sense of humour either
    * As empty experiences go, it's one of the best

P.S. Sorry about the bandwidth, fellas, but your onboard Niner triple Zero 
computer is in error predicting the fault, I repeat, in error predicting 
the fault.
