  1. Show me an actual example where you or someone else has 
     run into this "problem" in real life. Explain why in the first
     decade of Euphoria, *no one* ever reported this "problem".
     Explain why I should delay 100 other important features and bug
     fixes, that people actually want, to address this possible "problem".

  2. Give me a simple, totally reliable solution, coded in Euphoria,
     that works on all platforms, with no ill side effects and does
     not add *180* lines of code to the scanner. You say you will
     do the long-term maintenance, but you've "quit" Euphoria twice 
     in just the past year.

  3. Give me something I can write in the Euphoria language definition
     that does not read "if you change the size of a comment in a
     source file by one byte, your program's behavior could 
     change drastically".

  4. It is bad netiquette to quote private e-mails on public
     forums without the other party's permission. It does not
     encourage the other party to exchange private e-mails with you
     in the future.
