Originally, I replied to a response like this off-list, but did not find
the remark funny enough to post here. However, since this is a
second-repost of the same remark made before, I thought I would include my
comment to the list.

(If you follow this comment, from Warren, it is not really mean at all,
but is in fact funny.)

Taking only the parts out of the mail that emphasize the humor f the
comment and how it is not a flame as some have mailed me:

If you still dont "get it" scroll on further below....







Now to explain the joke for those who have not picked up on it by now...
Notice that I said "people tend to prefer a reponse with typos over no
response at all"

Of course, Warren offers me a response that fits into this description. He
"offers me a response with typos" (freek instead of freak or phreak) since
"people tend to prefer a response with typos over no response at all." In
this case, the joke is on me.

(Insert some witty comment here)   ;-)
