I gave him a discount. It's only my time that's involved. I don't have

Give one a discount and they all want a discount.

When I built big ticket, expensive vacuum deposition systems, I gave
discounts to repeat customers, not new ones.

But... But... He needs the business desperately.


And you know this how?


Because he posts here (and many other groups) *constantly* during normal
waking (working) hours, that's how. If he was gainfully employed, he
wouldn't be *nearly* prolific on usenet. There are only so many hours in a
day. He probably tells his wife that he's "working" while he types away
here. That also explains the "office" in the basement.
