[Coco] Computer entousiast mail list

[Salvador Garcia]

Thank you Camillus. That was very well said.Perhaps people will someday understand that being a great person, being skilled and having a degree are not related. After all, an educational institute can put the degree into a person, but they can't take the jerk or stupidity out of him/her. The result is that we have brilliant minds with or without education and we also have stupid people who insist on being called "doctor" ;-) Have a great Christmas! Salvador

Subject: [Coco] Computer entousiast mail list

Hi,For all it may concern.I was under the impression that this was a mail list, for computer enthusiasts, in fever of the 6809/6309 MCU's used in the Color computer range from Tandy Radio shack, and the UK clone Dragon. I'm so frustrated to read in here personal vendetta's being not only OT but also very annoying.If those person(s) would please take there business outside this list, then maybe we can read some info about our all beloved vintage box, being a coco or dragon, or whatever 6809 based device. And I'm not implying that there can be some interesting developments from other platforms, worth telling here.Also, I have NO degree hanging on the wall, and I make a lot of spelling mistakes in the English language, or even faulty sentence building, a fact that I try to blame on my not being native. But I do have some hard learned knowledge of computers in general which I gladly share with other enthusiasts. Having this said, I'm happy for those who have Engineer, PhD's, masters and or bachelors degree's and more trilled, because they are the thriving force of being the source of any new projects, blogs, stories, etc, etc. But I do not see the need for some people to rub it into our face, that they are over qualified and strongly opinionated about what other should do. Maybe they expect us to hang a framed picture on our wall? So for those who want post good articles, projects, blogs, info, are whatever positive and ON TOPIC to this list, please give me the joy, for those who are not get off this list and get a life!CB      -- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
