Don't all Poles use Swedish keyboards?

Pardon ME, Elizardbeth. I admit I did have the mistaken idea that Veronica
conspired with you on making that chart, as to adding the wording, ect..
However, I do remember you posting "Thanks" to me, for suggesting you
change it. And wasn't the "condescending" comment, about the facks, not
your chart?... No matter. I'm glad you changed it, for everyone. You
should post it, twice a week.

Gee, I thought this was my newsgroup. Thanks for pointing that out.
Sure, I've gotten email from everyone who has ever read this newsgroup.
They all write me. Yesterday, the Kind of Siam wrote me, and told me
what a great job I was doing, and let me know that as long as I posted
ascii, it didn't matter to him what other people used to read my
newsgroup...

I was quite honored.

You are quite correct. However, as a matter of etterkette, I sort of
attribute "ownership" of these little art threads on AAA, to the person
who starts and maintains the discussion, ect.. For instance, I stay off
your threads, as a matter of courtesy, because we don't get along. I
won't come make trouble on them. It seems to me a decent policy, on
a newsgroup such as this. Perhaps you should consider adopting it,
yourself.

I see you read my tutorial. I'm glad it's helped out. Try adding
some towers and a door, now. Nice work.
