You bringing up worm(4) was entirely irrelevant. You implied that wormcontrol
does not work because the worm old-SCSI driver is gone. Wormcontrol is
simply a utility that allows you to issue WORM ioctls to a device. See
/usr/src/share/examples/atapi (yes, in -CURRENT too) for exactly how
wrong you are about wormcontrol "not working."

Yes, why would it? I simply used your paragraph style: make one statement,
then another that is completely unrelated. Oh wait, you mean your writing
style utilizing the exact same strategy was _correct_? Give me a break.
Your holier-than-thou attitude is getting old, especially when you use
things that are entirely unrelated to try to back up the point your never
even had.

You didn't even reply anything close to what he wanted, and now you're
accusing me of the same? What crawled up your pants and died, leaving
you chafed and miserable? You see, when you answer someone, try to
answer what they asked and they'll appreciate it.
