They are Bens (now Evert's) code monkeys, they code what he tells them to code, does that make any more sense to you now? ... Thats the part you didnt understand. Where I wrote "the monkeys" in the message before, that isnt the Friedens at all, the fact you dont understand that is obvious. But you continue to imply in that section that "the monkeys" == "the Friedens" and it doesnt in any way. The more you don't understant that, the funnier it is to me.

Here is the line in its entirety:

Actually at the gateway 2000 show, we thought of the Friedens as code monkeys and really given the "technical prowess" they have shown over the years the monkeys may be mad I call them that.

There is a reason Boot_WB and others including myself read it the way we do. Many things that are written are open to interpretation but you seem to be going for quite the stretch on this one. It was bolstered by seperate comments refering to them at that time as not real programmers and as "the wonder twins". Things someone else mentioned to you at the time.

You can say now that it meant Ben and/or Evert but your specific language at the time speaks otherwise. Others can make their own conclusions. I have made mine. You got a laugh out of it so you're all set.

Its off-topic and we aren't going to agree on this so I'll leave it at that.
