Ohh.. how hurtful of you.

It was 4:45 am when I posted that, after long hours trying to make
some code work on Erlang that needs to be ready by Monday. And only
because I wasn't seeing anyone replying to the OP request for help,
that was sitting there for quite a few hours while everyone else was
entertained discussing how many keywords are in a programming
language. After I replied, I went to bed. Exhausted and sleepy.

I'm not sorry you didn't read either, you pretentious prick. But I
find it funny you replied to say that.
