What you're seeing is the reaction to past threads on this list that we've
taken to calling a "geezer-fest."  Like anything else, a brief flurry of "do
you remember...?" is amusing, but two weeks worth much less so.  Especially
to newcomers.  Poor Evelyn jumped into a hornet's nest when she said the
magazine was going to _encourage_ a geezer-fest!

For the record, I think the article will be interesting.  Perhaps IBM are
going to cut the cord between the heritage AS/400 and the modern iSeries and
this article will be the date we all remember as the Real iSeries launch.
Hey, I try to be optimistic once in a while...
