- I think you are being silly. Most comments to your annoying messages
- should have hinted at that. I will organise a vote just to keep you happy.
- I have taken you arguement seriously, I did say that I can see your point
- but that CTRL+A is so well established that it will be a bad idea to change
- it. You on the other hand added a stupid message to your sig file on
- Usenet.
-
- I will organise a vote for next week. Millert, please mail privately me a
- _short_ explanation of why you think CTRL+A should be changed. I will put
- my reasons as to why it should stay and prepare a combined message which
- people can vote on.

- Bye,
