Not only Bruce, as it have bbeen said, but it seems to me that almost all programmers that gather here has very good writting skills. And not only programmers, but also non-programmer guys like -just to name those I remember on the fly- Enrique, Jeroen, Timothy F, Dan Corbit, Dgeordge Vidanovic and surely a lot more I do not recall right now, but that I have read once and again with a lot of pleasure. In fact I can confess that half the reason I come here is less to learn about programs than to learn how to write good english when non literary issues are at stake. Almost from all of them I get a lot of fun. Post of this people tends to be logical, sometimes witty, even elegant from time to time. English is not my native language, as it is clear from my very fisr sentence of even my very last post, but I have read enough english-written stuff on history, literature and the rest -even some maths in my university times- as to be capable of some inner hint of what is quality and what is not when I see it. How is that and why? Maybe just because they are high IQ people with full command of this tool of thinking that is language or, maybe, because my poor english is rewarded by even the most elemental show of proficiency? Let me know if I am writting this from my ignorance or from my knowledge. Fernando
