I tried to keep out and tone down my engagement, but sometimes, just sometimes, the tempation is far too strong. In other words, Daniel Fink, it's all your fault! Now, let me rewrite your little play:
Lawyer - And what is null?
Mogens (Educator of 2003) - Null is unknown
Mladen (grumpy of 2003) - keeps quiet, but his face darkens signifficantly.
Lawyer - By you?
Mogens - Not just Lousiana, but all over the world.
Mladen (explodes): Read the freaking manual, you [EXPLETIVE CENSORED BY FCC].....
(keeps on ranting about usefulness of this list, temerity of lazy beginners, and
his own imeasurable contribution to the world of oracle and this list in particular)
Mogens & Lawyer, decidedly disgusted by the rant leave the scene and go to the nearest pub for beer.
Mladen: enganges in fruitless fights with everybody, and eventually has to apologize. Finally, he joins
lawyer and Mogens in the pub, buys a round and loses a game of pool to Mogens.
