Sssssshhh... Do not reply on the list to flame me as this (since it is directed
only to me). 

My intentions was not criminal at all when I sent the mail. I know
that you know what is your mistake - I make some erros like that 
really often. No, my intention was to not this funny stuff (eh,
I think it's funny - not bad - just funny). 

I'm sorry (really).

I have some practical experience in sending horrible mails to people
I do not know. I know these mail may be read as 'flame mail' (there
are a couple of them in the list - luther in strasbg/france allready
knows it :). 

The mails are not (in my mind) flame mails. Sometimes, I note
something funny (oh, I know... You do not really think it's funny.
But, believe it or not, such kind of mistakes are) and before 
any thought, I sent a response to the funny mail.

Last: the 'As the well known...' is my mail response header,
just as some may have 'xxx (yyy@zzz.nnn) said', or something
else. It is not here to be ironic or whatever. Sorry if you
believe it, because the people 'arround' me thinks it is very cool,
and I won't change it :(. [or : only once, just for you] :

In response to...

->Yes make is the path, of course it is.

->BUT no need to bash on ppl for miss reading the original message, or making
->a mistake.

->The best way to tell people they are wrong is not by hitting them over the
->head with a stick.
->
->BTW "Well known" I'm not, and I'm part of this group to learn not be judged.
->
->That's the line I missed in the original MSG 
->"make: *** No targets."
->
->So plz don't bash on ppl for reading MSG's to fast.
->
->Thank you for pointing out my mistake, next time don't use a stick.
