I assumed that you meant that Euphoria was not being promoted. I guess it
was presumtious of me. In the past, people have made the assertion that
Euphoria is not being promoted. When you wrote:
>>> Unless Euphoria is promoted, and members begin to

I had assumed that you were making a similar statement. Thank you for
correcting me.

Yes, that clears things up. This is clearly different than Euphoria not
being promoted.

Perhaps you're a bit confused; when I wrote:
>> You may have *intended* to write that
>> Euphoria is [not] being properly promoted,
>> or effectively promoted.
I left the 'not' out. My mistake; the sentance makes no sense without it.

Yes, I see your point. It's a pity there's no other resource they could go
to, such as an archive of submission by Euphoria coders. Maybe Robert will
consider adding one, after he starts promoting Euphoria.

Yes, I think we can agree that this "null promotion" is your opinion, and
not mine.

You are right, this excreting has gone on long enough. As you say, this
isn't a constructive use of time. I should be working on something you can
use in your products instead. Isn't this why we all decided to use Euphoria?
