Nope, still not seeing your face reduced to an ~20 pixel gif.
OTOH if Maunder's still managed to miss every opportunity to have a beer with you he might just not have a reference image to work off of.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You actually had sunshine in Wales?!
(I'm more likely to believe that you saw elephants. )
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

No often, no ... and it would appear that today will be another wet and grey one.

Wales is full of elephants - you just can't see them because they're so well camouflaged against the sky.

You must be referring to the grey elephants. I'm referring to the pink ones.

Signed (integer) division. Where your faith in the sanity of arithmetic first starts to crumble.

Not at all; it's only when integer division is being simulated with floating-point division that things go wrong. But it's floating-point division's fault.

Jokes apart
Turbo Basic is not unknown for me. But VAX? I never saw it
Edit:

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Unlike the newer DEC/COMPAQ/HP BASIC that I have on my AlphaServers and Itanium, VAX BASIC still has immediate mode.
