You prolly got good at it because of so many people on here asking what |
| 9 |
those crpytic messages are saying. Very few people can figure out what |
| 10 |
they are trying to say. Every once in a while, I get lucky and can |
| 11 |
keyword a package or something and get past a blocker but sometimes, it |
| 12 |
may as well spit out Greek characters. |

What gets me on this one, it really didn't give a clue what the real |
| 15 |
problem is. If it did, I missed it. |

I just wonder, is there some way they can make emerge spit out something |
| 18 |
that makes sense or is that something that can not be done? |
