Let me, therefore, be the first to demand an ETA on the next patch. Just wanted to let you know that we are starting the clock now.

Anyhow, thanks for the hard work. Plan to try it right now.

It's obvious that you're making an attempt at some kind of humor by starting the nagging for the next patch/update already -- give the poor Matrix people a break.

Are you being served??  If not, oh well, I guess the servers are busy, but will hopefully be here to help you within a fornost I would deem.

A hay penny for your thoughts, as you're not allowed emotion.

Ta, Chris

Excuse please, do you here anyone slandering anyone else's nation or nationality?? No you don't, except for your very immature and extremely ignorant self.

Grow-up.

Please exercise a sense of humor when replying here, or you risk proving the original assertion beyond a shadow of doubt.

Of course, those accusations were by other Americans, so their validity might not be up to the standards held by some societies. Keep the faith.

I don't see any difference in standards here in the USa or in all the other nations of the world. Things can and do get twisted etc. everywhere at the local and national levels of societies.

That's why I formed my own country, the Republic of Chris.

I think your confusing sarcasm with mild simmering homocidle rage.
over here we get it out of our system with Bonfire night, - the 5th of november celibration of the attempt to blow up the houses of parlement. originally started to remind people how lucky they were that he failed, its now shifted to fireworks and bonfires (poor guys still burned in effergy) but the feelings shifted more towards "well, at least he tried"

no..no... mild simmering homocidle rage is what we feel while driving on the Beltway around DC... We relieve it by cutting off the same guy twice... though I do like your bonfire idea... The last really big bonfire around here was caused by the British during the War of 1812... Unless you count the Urban Renewel projects in Atlanta (1864) and Richmond (1865?)...

Unfortunately, I have seen large areas of Detroit burn in 1967 and through the years of the mid and late 1970's through the early 1990's. 1967 was the very large riot or 'armed insurrection against the government of the USA' as at least one person and report referred to the 1967 riot, and then during later times due to gangs and gang warfare and arsonist-thieves and just wild kids. For many consecutive years idiotic news reporters and other wierdos would come to Detroit to film all the fires that occurred every year on Devils Night (the eve before Halloween). I think one year there were over 1,000 fires, fires lit in abandoned buildings and homes etc. and in some not abandoned buildings and homes, over a period of 1 to 2 days. Our home and half of our small block was torched by arsonist-thieves in 1989, we lost just about everything.

The only humor I have concerning that nonsense is very caustic and sarcastic and sometimes bitter at a level of intensity that most people have not nor ever will be aware of, although there are many people that are aware and experienced.

'Burn baby burn!!' 'I am the god of Hellfire, and I bring you FIRE!!!' To quote J. Hendrix, 'Are you experienced? ...' H. Sienkiewicz' first novel of his great trilogy is entitled 'With Fire and Sword'. Don't be bored, but personally I would rather be bored.

Phhhhrrrrrrrttttttt!!!!!

Have a good warm and toasty day, but not too warm and toasty now, Chris

Only mild?? You gotta be kidding. The beltway and I-66 are suicidal! They are either going 80 or stopped. Either one gets my blood to boil!

I am so glad I moved away from the area.
