Majority of my Email is from people having issues with the ti89's 24k limit.

One of the only two e-mails was about a guy who didn't know what the error message 'Cannot find monodata' meant. Now with SmartStart, people should no longer get this message. (See link for details)

I don't get any replies about my programs. I repeat several times in my readmes to send e-mail if they have any comments or questions, and I know people have downloaded my games... Why doesn't anyone send me mail about my games? Follow the link to see the games I've written.

I've gotten an error report once, but nothing else. I state in readme to e-mail me, too. Of course, no one ever reads the readme, so I state it in the description, too.

Not reading readmes is evil. There's a reason they're called "readme"s. Sheesh.

If you had read the README attached to the english language, you would know when to use an apostrophe.

Today must be heckle day.

No, you happen to be the incorrect one. I am referring to the items or ideas of the "readme" in plural, so attaching an "s" on the end of "readme" is correct. However, my phrasing was sort of confusing making it sort of hard to read, but you're still wrong. You might want to be sure that you're correct before you "correct" someone. Silly grammar fiends.

Yeah, heckle day really.

Well, in all cases, if you add anything to the end of a word, it will go inside a quotation mark. It would be "readmes."

Heckle day is fun...

Or, perhaps the best method is to leave the "s" off all together: there's a reason they're called "readme." Because they arent called readme in the plural. Another illustration of this point comes if there was, say, a group of people all named "Bob," because their mothers had all been witches and had floated. Now, someone could say, "There's a reason they're called 'Bob,'" and that would be completely correct, in fact it would be wrong to use "Bobs" in this case. I guess I'm on kind of a rant...

What's the reason for the quotation marks in the first place? What's wrong with just README? So many people have used the term, it is like a cliche. It's not even slang any more.

This isn't an english language site!!! We can all speak it well enough and understand each other, which is kind of the point of a language, so it doesn't really matter.

FYI, I have read the readme for every file that I have ever downloaded from ticalc.org (and most all of the files I have downloaded from elsewhere.) I normally find good information in them...

Yay! There's a reason that people write them... Well, most of the time. Sometimes they comtain even less information than their descriptions on the site. That's just sad...

Although I was very tempted to say purple monkey dishwasher, I decided to tell the truth and vote "none".

Since my downloads aren't counted and my files aren't rated, I picked hate mail. Now that I've seen that no one picked "other," I wish I'd picked that.

Aren't you glad Bush doesn't make forign policy decisions based on these polls... Now that I think about it, it might be an improvement if he did.

Wierd... I think I'm the only one that voted "error reports"... You'd think you'd get a lot of those...

well, it's possible that, like me, you do get bug reports, but you also get other kinds of mail, like praises, and rather than point out your bugs here, you'd like to point out the praises, or in my case suggestions, that you've recieved.
