I'm afraid the Dorktor's head left no room for hibernation there. ;)

Why, I changed my ways years ago, Pule! You must have missed it during

Nah... just a terrible waste of protoplasm... ;)

Golly, Pule... I don't have to do anything to discredit Tom. He can't
help but do that to himself.

Him leaving csa2 forever is a running joke though. He's only done it 4
or 5 times now. ;)

> Whatever his faults, Tom is helping to preserve the Apple II.

He's been gone from csa2 for two years, Pule... wait. I guess you're
right, his absense HAS helped preserve the Apple II. ;)

> You, on the other hand post *nothing* but attacks on Tom.

Hmmm... Not really. I sharpened my claws on Cooter for a bit.
Something about pompous asses and pirating phules that just rubs my fur
the wrong way.

Still, if you feel the motherly urge to protect the good Dorktor, don't
let me stop you. You're sort of humourous in your way too. ;)

Gee, for a literary type person, I'd think you could come up with your

I had a friend from Germany visit Joes
home and said there were cats all over
the place 100's of cats - not at all alive
but, just that virtually everything there
had some sort of a cat picture, figurine
and such.

Would that qualify as a Quantum Cat

Well, sure. All this inactivity since the good Dorktor retired from
csa2 forever was beginning to become tiresome.

I guess it was for the Dorktor too, else he wouldn't have lied about
leaving forever, and once again practices his pestiferous pestilence on
csa2. Oh well, some things never change. ;)

And some things do. When Tom "outed" himself here on csa2, I took the
liberty of browsing some of his other recent Usenet posts through Google.
The personality of his posts seems to have gone from deranged and sometimes
aggressive (as I remember them) to cheerfully strange. Perhaps something of
his personality, or at least social skills, has truly changed since he "left
forever."

Dr. Tom was undeniably a divisive presence, as illustrated by some reactions
from his mere reappearance here. Clearly there are some bitter memories.
But honestly, it looks like his time-out worked for him, and if he wants to
come back and play with the other children now, shouldn't we give him an
open and honest chance? I don't want to contribute to the reformation of an
antiquated and possibly needless political schism. And if it's necessary, I
know how to work a killfile.

No need to apologize. We all have these days when we're not
all we should be. I see from the most recent posts that the Dr.

A good friend of mine in the A2 world has warned me all about
him and I know not to mess in a very old flame war. :o)

Thanks for your premissive tolerance of me
vector. Yes, I'm no longer concerned with
the hateful attitudes of anybody about past
events. Asimov lives, Apple2.org.za host
many great archives for the Apple II peoples
needs and likewise so does the old historical
preserved grin.net site of yester -years.

I'm not really back in the true sense of the word.
Just lurking and commenting on things every
now and then.

Believe it or not I actually got an email last year
from Nathan Mates asking to make amends with
me for all the hateful attitudes he fostered towards
me in the past. So, we are on friendly terms still.

If anything ever needs to be done that I see an reason
for rest assured it will be done.

I've turned all A2 efforts
over to another oldie
but goodie from the A2
past - Dr. Roberts!

You got me good.

I'm getting really senile. :)

I ment to say Kansasfest 2005. It
is about Apples isn't it? I'll make sure
that if Richard goes I'll convence Dr. Tom
to go also. I hope he accepts the invite.
I'll even pay for his reg. to it. But, he'll
have to cover his own airfare from Aussie.

I'd love to meet you QC. I really would
and so would Dr. Tom.

KISSES & HUGS!
Let's make Kansasfest 2005 - one for all

Well, that's due to the lifestyle choices you made long ago. Now it

I'm sure that's what you meant, Dorktor. Sadly, your brain cell was

I dunno. Check http://kfest.org

That ought to be an interesting conversation to watch. I hope you DO

How kind and generous of you to make that offer. I know how difficult
that must be to come up with the bucks for that, being the welfare leech
you are. ;)

> I'd love to meet you QC. I really would and so would Dr. Tom.

Hey! If you register, be sure and ask for the multi-personality

Charles T. 'Dr. Tom' Turley? CTurley2? Can it really be you?

In all seriousness, I seem to remember Rubywand writing to say you'd gone
away forever from csa2 to die of heart problems. I take it that didn't
happen, then, and you're well again?

It appears that I'm unable to validate that assertion. Or more
specifically, I don't want to take the time to do it, even if it could be
done.

It's possible I've confused Tom's original goodbye wherein he cited his poor
health among the reasons for his departure
(http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.sys.apple2/messages/bf74cf937f12df17)
with another of your posts which referenced his. It *has* been a few years,
after all. Or as we're fond of saying at work, "Sorry, I've slept since
then."

No thanks Steve. I've got my original (two period) personal disk version
Brutal Deluxe sent me to trap me in piracy. ;) I thought
we both uploaded that somewhere before.

This group is to polite and civil to start a flame war again. After all Nathan
and I
settled our problems and parted on friendly terms. I'm still thrilled with
that Turkey
game he did in my honor. But, damned if I
can find it anywhere online any more.

I want to play it on Bernie ][ the Rescue on my Dell. Anybody know where I can
get a copy of it?

I doubt very much than anyone else in the world would want to be you. ;)

I've seen Richard do strange and twisted things with a barbie, but I
think he'd rip out his intestines to hang himself if the mere glimmer of
the possibility of even contemplating the act of thinking of
impersonating you were to touch lightly on his mind.

Even I would find such an act to be totally degrading, hideous, and
unthinkable.. *Gack*!

I was thinking more along the lines of preserving Apple II related
files and making them available to others. I can't recall you even
answering an Apple II related question for someone. You may have some
other socially redeeming value, but as far as csa2 goes YOU'RE the
waste of protoplasm.

I stand corrected. I'll make that "You, on the other hand post
*nothing* but attacks." Is that accurate? Do you even have any
interest in Apple II's?

Tell ya what- there's 1.3 billion Chinese and a billion Indians
pirating like crazy. Why don't you run along and go bother them? When
you're done there's also the Russians, Thais, etc etc.

You're a joke. The Apple II has been out of production for what, 12
yrs? I think the statute of limitations has run out on Tom's crimes.
You aren't just beating a dead horse, it's Eohippus.

His attempts at humour are pretty mild, as witnessed by his lame

He excels at being funny when he doesn't mean to. ;) 4-D sound indeed!

He certainly has. Even if he had to steal them first. ;P

True enough. No one has ever asked me one. ;)

Well, feel free to hold that opinion. There are others that disagree.
Hi Roy!

Sure do. QC arose due to my annoyance at what the Dorktor was doing to
my Apple II developer friends, and his snagging my work as well.

Well, one must choose one's battles. 2.3 billion pirates could kick my
butt.

Playing "Whack-a-Mole" with one beached, bleached, and bloated binary
code "borrowing" butthead is more enjoyable, I've found. ;)
