Helllooooooooo, Xah Lee! (Score:2)

I don't remember much.
But I remember that Xah Lee is that dick from the MacPerl list who wouldn't wrap his lines [bumppo.net].
He's a low-grade kook.

  Yes, he wrote a long dissertation [xahlee.org] about this, complaining about I and tchrist complaining about him. Incredible.
  
  He also wrote a rant about Perl [xahlee.org], in which he also invoked my name. He's funny.

    Oh, and I wrote very few emails to Xah, and this [bumppo.net] was most of the extent of it, where I asked him to stop insulting people who used Unix, and corrected him on some of his errors [bumppo.net].
    
    I recommend, davorg, you remind him of his promise: "When one day Mac OS is unix-like, then I'll take an axe and chop my head in two."

      Noticed this entry a bit late, but I (without doubt with some others helping) had his hosting provider kick him out: http://xahlee.org/Periodic_dosage_dir/t2/harassment.html [xahlee.org]
