Dear users, I have a weird questions. A friend of mine, some years ago, supposedly trying to access help files without Internet connection, got something like this error message: "The Pythia is not available, please go to Delphi" When I've heard about it, I found it very funny and I'd like to be able to get it. Does anyone of you know how to get this error message again? Since it's an old story, no sessionInfo possible. Thanks in advance for this uncritical question!

I dont think it's network connection related. Type ??? :-) Michael On Jul 25, 2012, at 6:49 AM, Ivan Calandra <ivan.calandra at u-bourgogne.fr> wrote:> Dear users, > > I have a weird questions.

see head(`?`, 20) there is another funny thing: Sys.sleep(2 + rpois(1, 2)) (in theory R can, although is unlikely to, sleep forever since it is a Poisson distribution...)
