Max: Sorry, didn't see your contribution to WYSIWYG. Would not have stolen your thunder if I had, I would have attributed it to you. My opinion remains ...

Faldage: If you use 4-bit encoding for ASCII instead of 7 or 8, and also use your proclaimed correction pronunciation, would that make the acronym half-assed?

And for anybody interested:

The Darracq factory that had been built in the Portello district of Milan was then sold to a group of Italian car enthusiasts who called themselves the 'Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili' (ALFA) in 1910.

Oh, and YAY ME!

>[petulant harumphing emoticon] Yes, and meanwhile, my little foray into TEd's pundom with WYSIWYG has gone completely unremarked upon

Well, hmmm, ummm, actually, no, we weren't, very. Well, ahhhh, maybe just a little ... nope, not at all, as a matter of fact! Unless, of course, it comes with a complimentary Maranello ...

And I'm glad to see you've managed to kick your habit!
