Hi pal:
I would pay to the Devil if he could give me a good program and CSTAl is one of
them. Besides Chris is not that bad a guy. Just kind of a freak like everybody
here. Sure, he has a sharper tongue than many and know how to use the words.
Better to take his broadsides as a litterary exercize in satire and sarcasm.
Then you can enjoy them...
