Hi all,

<smiling>  I wonder if a court would take extreme uselessness and
inconvenience and poor work time as good reason for your secretaries
actions in doing bodily harm to the nincompoop who suggested changing
from Emacs to MSWord!  I think that a judge might just do that! 

<grinning>  Ann P.
Emacs user and proud of it!
