Well, he has been told by just about everyone who bothers to reply that
his script is the problem not emerge.  It's amazing how so many of us
use emerge all the time and generally it does what it is supposed to do
but for this Alan, it does something different. 

What is also a surprise, Alan hasn't figured out that his script is the
problem.  One thing about a jackhammer, it will tear up whatever you put
it on.  His jackhammer script and methodology has sure done that for him. 

Me, I'm going to town and find a air filter for my neighbors tiller. 
That is something more productive.  ;-)
