Reverse the rotation of the earth, please

Post by dunbarx »

I am sick and tired of Klaus getting first crack at answering questions, just because he lives in Europe. I refuse to move to Japan.

It isn't fair.

Scotland???

Being April 1 this seems a reasonable request. I would suggest submitting it to the bug queue.

Richard.

You want to know the real joke? I had no idea it was April 1 when I posted.

had to refresh my memory and search the forum. :D

Well, that one was really harmless, we have had some really worse guys!
And even one gal! Dr. M.L. she was a real nightmare!

And before the forum there was (and still is) the mailing list!
Also quite entertaining from time to time :D

Klaus.

I hate those who slow traffic to stare at an accident at the side of the road. I purposefully speed up past the scene, just because.

But can you give me a thread for Dr. M L? I would like to see someone worse than Mr Black, who had two separate threads halted by moderators (one was Heather).

Can't stop wondering. What makes you think that the reverse rotation of the earth could change that?

Hi Hermann.

If the earth rotated the other way, my mornings would start before Klaus'.

Or yours...

Hi Craig,

I'm afraid the "Dr. M.L." affair took place before this forum existed, so nothing I could point you to.

I did not watch the embarrassement en detail at that time, must have been about 10 (?) years ago,
but in short, in the end Dr. L. tried to sue RunRev for not keeping their (marketing) promises
about the features of "Revoluton", or whatever its name was at that time.

I do hope, Klaus and Co. that you are NOT trying to dethrone me.

Also, while I'm here: don't you think what is needed is not to reverse the rotation of the earth, but just for the LiveCode server
to adopt a backwards clock?
