Go up one level in this thread


Dear Thorsten:
Let me clear a couple of things:
a) I am very calm about this issue. I am not a man to become irated by these
things. Not for almost anything in fact, except noise and bad music.
b) I was just registering the fact that you, in the very title of the post,
announced we were not seeing anything.
c) I do not say tiger or whatever program is like sargon. I was just giving an
example of how old certain techniques are and how speculative they were and are.
I am sure that Tiger is beyond comparison in terms of sophistication.
d) I do not proyect nothing. I have no bad feelings of any kind about you. I do
not judge your person, just I make a comment about just a sentence.
e) I am not a beam counter. How could I be one if I scarcely understand what do
you mean by that? I believe it is kind of derogatory terme invented by Chris W.
or by you and maybe has an utility as a weapon, but not real value in serious
discussion.
f) Of course I would love to see more program behaving like Tiger, with nuances
and variations. I have not interest in keeping things as they are now. I am not
a programmer, I do not sell programs, I am not a friend of any programmer, -but
I have good feeling for all them- , so I have nothing to defend about how things
are by now.
In fact, my comment of your comment was absolutely deprived of every deep reason
to exist, save the casual desire to just make a comment. Maybe it was not a good
comment. So you think. OK. But please, do not engage in psych reasoning about
that. Just a comment. A silly commnent perhaps. In a cold blood  comment. A
comment en passant. A nothingness.
My best wishes
Fernando
