I said binary, not base 256. Secondly, the post by Mark was sarcastic. Third, I will continue donating to both Lojban and singinst.org. Money may seem crass, but it is necessary to have a functioning organization. I have written to Mark personally to explain why I was offended. mo vi do Quoting Robin Lee Powell : Umm. First of all, how much you've donated is totally irrelevant to the task of making a byte-compiled Lojban. Secondly, Mark's not far behind you; he helps us get rooms at jbonunsla. Thirdly, there's no reason for that sort of hostile response. It's not going to help anything. Especially since he was *offering to help you*. -Robin On Sun, Oct 22, 2006 at 01:55:51PM -0700, Ryan Keppel wrote: > How about you match what I have given to Lojban? Huh?
