   I listen to the person who has run the program, seen it work, and sent    
   me the entire output log as proof.  I tend not to listen so much to the    
   Ilya Zakharevichs of this world who then come along later and say that    
   what the two of us have seen with our own two eyes is impossible, and    
   cannot be so.  When it's a choice between you making bald assertions on    
   Usenet and hard data in hand, M. Zakharevich, I go with the hard data in    
   hand.   
      
   You know, this is the second time in the past month or so when you've    
   tried to convince me of the impossibility of something that I have    
   myself either done directly or seen done by someone else.
