I thought everyone adept at computers knew what irc was, since irc has
been around since the DARPA days. There is no specific irc database type
protocol, so i am guessing type:it cannot be questioned. As i responded to
in a previous email. Tiggr responds to english, as i explained in a previous
email.

I think you got the sequence of emails out of sorts, and since this email is
days after the last one of this thread, i am fairly sure of it. Or something is
really lagged in the email somewhere.

I did wish to share. I did not wish to hand over the data and go away. The
other posts on this thread were consumed with finding other sources of the
data, i simply did not reply to them, but they were there. I did not confine my
world to this one set of emails between Juergen and myself, or i'd have taken
it private.

I guess that is where i got the "50" from, from you, eh?

I never said you said that! What are you trying to do, put words in my
mouth??

Umm, those are not mutually exclusive, Juergen. Please think logically.

I am looking around atm, trying to locate anything online or in real life where
i
work or play with any humans on any project. There's nothing. There's
nothing i do that works to entice humans to work with me,, perhaps the
problem is not with me.

I don't know,, what happens in real life is when i stay on topic, humans think
that is all i *can* do.

Yes, me too. You first. Why did you wait several days before raising the
thread again?
