* Raccoon quotes a passage from the mIRC v4.0 & v4.1 helpfile, April 1996.
"Why is this the final version of mIRC?" is a good question, along with "Why is mIRC freeware?", "What's this thing you have about trout?", "What does the m in mIRC stand for?", and a few others I've been asked over the past year since mIRC was first released. I don't have any good answers to any of these but I can say that the answers to all of them are in some way or another related to my philosophy of life, my mental state at the time, the limits of my physical endurance, the urge to say "moo" every once in a while, my remarkable ability to perform silly walks, and in general... me.
