Point I had in mind in automotive terms. Vehicle is safe, and does well in crash tests. Driver has a license and follows basic care of oil changes and tires. While driving they fail to pay attention to driving and instead pay attention to their appearance, their phone, the children in the back seat, and watching UTube videos as they drive. In the IT side the Phishing schemes, eCards, free porn are many distractions that computer "drivers" get derailed on. It has nothing to do with an app, and everything to do with the user's lack of attention to reality. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer CIMSgts 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
