Ok, here it is again.

I interpreted your meaning of KLIST being dead, as some have said RPG is
dead because of Java.  Others thought you meant dead like "it doesn't do
anything like an opcode does".

I didn't say you said RPG was dead anywhere in my mails.  I used it as an
example to explain how I meant you were using the term "dead".
