   How many of you realize who Bill Manning is ?

        yup.. i do.  he's a wizzend, cynical, troll (may or may not
        be naked - see his previous post on not wanting to be forced
        to wear a teeshirt)

  While you are at it, go flame Vinton Cerf... I am sure he
will learn from you, too......

        been there, done that.  learned quite a bit.

I have known Bill for years, and respect him for a lot of what he has  
done.  But if he is wrong, I have zero trouble calling him on it.   
Who you are doesn't change facts.

        amen there.

That said, I admit I probably hesitate a bit longer before flaming  
Dr. Cerf. :)  If you've ever met them both, you would understand why.

        Vint does present a smaller target most days.  :)
