Get your brand new green PINE tree in time to decorate for christmas! You could mod it with all blue lights... imagine a beowulf cluster of christmas trees! Merry Christmas to all!
Seriously though, threads help a ton in organizing messages.:)

Sorry, those blue lights aren't accepted into the changefiles, so they'll have to go. You may not release your own blue-light-PINE either.
Careful, captain. Some of us are still using Pine.
Of course I'm not surprised by the reaction. My mother saw me sshing to my box once and said "Oh God, that brings back horrible memories..." Who says that UI has nothing to do with End User acceptance? Me personally: I love it. But to most people its like "Why do you go out hunting with a bow and arrow when we can get perfectly good meat down at the Kroger?"

Not a fair analogy. A better one would be "Why go out hunting with a bow and arrow when you could chase squirrels, beat them senseless with your plastic Outlook cd case, then eat their brains?"

Pine Is Not Elm? wtf?

There's 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Good for them. I myself just released 2.10, for a can of pop and bag of chips. That comes on the heels of a 1.30 release, into a parking meter.

The Web is like Usenet, but
the elephants are untrained.
And don't forget about pico (pine composer), which has been making bad programmers worse for more years than I care to remember.

I kept asking myself, "Why in the world would a text based e-mail need threading." I finally figured it out. It's not multithreading! Duh.
Open admission of self-made mistake... Are you _sure_ you're a slashdot regular? ;)
