interesting experiment.

[Janina Sajka]

Octavian:

Are you aware how inconsistant you are? Do you realize how
discouraging that is to someone who might want to help you out
and give you advice? Do you realize that it means you won't be
taken seriously?

If you hate the sound of the old DEC Talk when you use it with
emacspeak, why would you like it were you able to use it with
Speakup? It would still have the same sound and all those noises
you were complaining about two days ago.

Are you serious about Linux, or are you just here to cause
trouble? You act like you're not serious.
