 Naw, I'll just throw nutscrape away -- again. I'm not here to do anybody's
work for them.

Where do these guys get off with this nit-pickery? C'mon. ;-)

 Plus, not to be any more cranky, but that action by n-s doesn't do squat
to sloppy coders. It just keeps me from seeing pages I want to see, sloppy
coding or no sloppy coding. So who suffers? I ain't going to complain to
the page owner, ees no my hob.

 Actually, if you think about it (I just did!) Good app-writing will make
using that app as easy as possible. Putting in that kind of abitrary stuff
is just a trifle arrogant and elitist, I think.

Sorta like the teacher who gives you a zero on your research paper if you
are one second late - no excuses, "You should have started earlier and not
gone to the store for groceries when that guy was planmning to rob it."

But what the heck, there's room for  everyone.

 And doncha think writing code could be automated? Why should anyone have
to be  smart to write code? Isn't that what computers are for?  .-)
