Yeah, that sounded suspicious.
I thought the dude like you won't be trying to make a buck
at this stage of the game.
So now that other dude feels guilty.
Should at least buy a set of books for 50 bux
to help the young, starving ai dude.
Afterall, if you had enough interest to go see that site,
then what was your intent?
Better produce 100 bux, $50 for books,
and another $50 for not understanding the true intentions
of a young starving ai dude,
trying to solve the problems of mankind.

Well, at least you are doing something
and not just running your mouth wild.
All these dudes combined
won't be able to even port that most portable
thing in existance - Forth to windows, i bet.

Oh, noooo.
That too below the beld, dude.
You can't go that fast on yer royal clients.
They may get pissed
and never come to see yer royal site
and the counter will remain at 50.
I wouldn't be that radical about.
