Right. I've know a lot of wonderful Texans; my favorite person in my
life, a lady surgeon and psychiatrist, now deceased, was from
Galveston. If all ol' Rog does is watch Western reruns on TV, and
hasn't actually spent any time there, he doesn't know the facts, and
is just spouting prejudices. Texans are as likely to be gay
non-observant Jewish programmers as bible-thumping Creationists.

Which is true of just about anywhere in the Western World, these days,
although the southern United States does seem to have more than it's fair
share of Bible thumpers. The fact that poor old Jonny comes from Texas is
really neither here nor there, and it would be better if those of us who
oppose his bombastic and scurrilous behaviour were to drop references to the
lone star state.

Actually, I've met good people everywhere I've traveled, which is, to put it
mildly, widely. I've also met bombastic, scurrilous numbskulls who insult
their own intelligence with every utterance.

Young Jonny isn't unique. He's just inflicted on us. To call him a
typical Texan is an insult to the State of Texas.

And for those who like to bring up the fact that Enron was a Texan company,
so is Texas Instrument, who have been forthright about their problems and
are sorting them out. And would anyone like to claim that TI make poor
product?

I just feel sorry for the other people who work at Austin Instruments.

I'm a bit surprised that a bible thumping creationist (your definition)
like
Fields would use the kind of foul and abusive language as freely as he
does.
As the song goes, "He's drifting too far from the shore".


For the record, I did not mention JF - I was discussing Texans in
general, and my positive experiences in the specific - and certainly
know nothing of his personal religious or thumping preferences.

John

A really wierd mental picture just popped up: John fields giving a sermon!

Sorry, John, and I know it probably has no grounding in reality, but the
thought of Larkin's language in a church just boggles the mind!

Come tothink of it, I wonder how he behaves in business meetings.

As for typing the word "fuck" (derivation, Latin, Fugio, to travel or to
do),
---------------

Ah, no, that's NOT "fuck"'s derivation.

And Fugio means "to flee", NOT "travel" or "do", as in "tempus fugit".

Fuck has its origin in germanic, not latinate lingua.
See "figgen" in Deutsch.
