Clayton, my thoughts exactly. While the list does 'drift' at times, benefits can still be seen in the 'drifts'. From the 'drifts' I've been able to laugh. I am about to see many people I know lose their jobs because my company is laying a ton of people off right now. I really need to laugh. No to mention anybody who doesn't snicker and think 'they actually pay me to do this' is more than likely not enjoying their job. We GenXer's know that work and fun are not mutually exclusive and besides that growing up is sooooo overrated :] Maturity necessary, acting old optional. When the list is 'on' it's been able to help me create a personal knowledgebase from many of the questions/answers that have been and will continue to be a great asset to increasing my own knowledge. I've also been able to test my own skill by figuring out an answer and seeing if it matches any proposed solutions or suggesting a few answers myself. And a last note, the people on this list are REAL [just like the song says:] I, for one, enjoy that. I spend my day dancing around peoples feelings and telling them what they want to hear and it takes it's toll. I've never been shy with my comments, and some days it helps to just say 'you know, that's damn dumb' then I can breathe again and face another day. Thanks to Stu and everyone on this list. I think the list is great and don't want to see it change, it's got just the right mix of knowledge AND fun ;] Best regards, L.D.

I dunno, this list has saved my butt a few times, and other lists I have been on have these wonderful folks who condemn you for asking the wrong question, or just blast out a q number without really helping, acting as if they were some sort of god on high.
