Hey, that's great. May your enjoyment continue.
Today I clipped one of my toenails and it sailed across the room and
landed perfectly in a cup up on top of a bookcase. It made me happy
just like you are happy. Sounds like lots of great things are happening
everywhere.
_why
Don't worry if this sounds strange. _why is our local weird genious.
Anyhow welcome on board and happy rubying.
cheers,
Brian

ngoc, don't take it personally, _why is always like that ;) .
However the comparison isn't that bad. When I first came across Ruby, it
was as if everything went suddenly into place perfectly. I thought to
myself: "of course! *that's* how it should be!". Since then learning
Ruby has been more like discovering how my brains natively work rather
than learning a separate language. It can make so much sense it's freaky!
Could it be that matz is actually channeling us all at the same time? Or
maybe *we* are channeling him all at the same time ;) ...

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.

read "babel-17", one of matz' favourites, IIRC.
ISBN 0375706690 for example.

You'd think that as a conlanger I would have already read it ;) . But strangely
enough I didn't know it existed. Thanks for the advice though, I'll surely try
and find it (don't tell me "Amazon", I can't pay by Internet, but I have a
bookstore in the neighbourhood that has to have it).

Great stuff! What about your boss - was he sold, too?
