Really? So I could ridicule your code, your religion, your children, your omelettes, your business, or your fitness regime, and you wouldn't feel a twinge unless I attacked the essential essence that is Randal? I am not sure I could always tell the difference between myself and my functions. Indeed, in my world the things you do and say that impact me define whom you are. What you wrote on this list left with me with the impression that you were unhappy and spiteful. I have no doubt of your technical abilities, but the tone of your older posts here differ hugely from that of your books. If they were written with the same vehemence I am sure it would hit your pocket hard.
