Here's a random example:

--------------

There are several points where we could cut off development and release a new
version. The real version we are excited about has quite a bit of new
functionality, and we are trying to decide whether it makes any sense to
release an interim version first. The downside of doing that is we have to
cut things off and do a lot of testing prior to any release, which would delay
the full product we are really focused on. My guess is we will do it all at
once, and all I can say at the moment is it will be this year.

That was on Tuesday, 15 August 1995, at 12:45 PM EST. I cannot recall a
SINGLE proffer which Mr. Frank has actually delivered, since that time.
Periodic self-serving pronouncements, which add up to precisely nothing.
Perhaps he will tiptoe quietly off into the night, and leave us where we've
been all along: alone.
