I think you misunderstood my goal. Yes, I'm tired of listening to Steve say he's too important to bother to take off his muddy shoes before clomping through my kitchen. I don't buy his "I'm too busy to trim" argument because (1) He doesn't have to use his cell phone to reply. Nothing discussed on Plug is so critical it can't wait until the evening as he kicks back behind a real computer to catch up with the community. (2) He could be Warren Buffet and that still wouldn't make his reply so important or his time so valuable that he'd have an excuse for not taking 3 seconds to trim. But that's not the real problem. The real problem is that he pisses me off so much I feel a need to call bull on his claims every time, and Plug doesn't need to listen to that old broken record. He refuses to change, so all I can do is change myself. That's proving to be a slow process, so I'm altering my environment to reduce the temptation. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
