You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous of
which is never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slighly
less well-known is this... Never mention to DM an error or a
possible feature in Synchonet.
Is DM Sicilian?
From the name of his BBS (and his last name), I would have thought DM
is of German lineage. :P

It was a "Princess Bride" reference, I thought the "land war in Asia" line was a reference.

I was on the Apache web server mailing list a long time ago. We did the
usual trading of TPB references, and the listmaster allowed it to continue, saying while it was off-topic, a Pricess Bride reference was a sign of good character.
