Tholen,
Mike Brown, the astronomer who wrote the book bragging that he had killed Pluto, tweeted a couple months ago that he was vacationing in Hawaii. I tweeted to ask if he was going see David Tholen. He tweeted back asking if you were there. I sent him the information on you from your university website.
Did he ever look you up?
I thought the two of you might have some real grudges to settle!

What does your thought have to do with OS/2, Double-A? And why would I
have a grudge against Brown, Double-A? Does he routinely make large
numbers of off-topic posts to an OS/2 newsgroup, Double-A?

What do your classic erroneous presuppositions have to do with OS/2,
Double-A? *You* are hanging in this group, Double-A, though I don't know
why since you show so little interest in OS/2, Double-A.
