Close enough. If I ever got such a check it would be professionally framed and hung on my wall. As would most people reading this.

- sandbach 2mo agoMost people reading this would be hung on your wall?
- philipallstar 2mo agoAfter being framed, of course. You need to have a justification.
- toast0 2mo agoI heard philipallstar and sandbach were doing treason. @bluGill, you owe me some money or this framing won't be professional. ;)
- bluGill 2mo agoWait, I thought I was going to frame you, but it turns out you're you're blackmailing me. I don't have to frame you anymore. I have evidence of a real crime.
- philipallstar 2mo agoThis is some very unprofessional framing.

I’m on the mailing list where potential TeX-related bugs appear and it’s crazy the level of detail people go to in looking for any remaining bugs in that software. ⸻ 1. I know at least one of these came from porting lesser-known utilities to VM/CMS. By that time, DEK already had adopted a practice of having his secretary print his emails and he’d hand-write a reply and you’d get it in the mail.
