Perhaps it's time to make a point of this again: I have no relationship
to GEnie except the incidental one of having worked for the same $60
billion/year, 250,000-or-so-employee, multinational company.
I make something of a minor profession of not knowing anything about
GEnie so I don't have to watch what I say. I have never even seen it
being used and have no idea what its interface looks like - and do not
want to!
Any apparent praise or criticism of GEnie in anything I say is entirely
by accident.
