 If they cannot understand the threats, how can they understand TB?
 Internet 101 before Internet 102.

Really? So you'd advocate the use of Outlook or Outlook Express
because it's easy? Wow...

 In the same way, I wouldn't recommend a tank to a new driver for
 protection. Bad analogy?

I got to shoot at a tank once during M-79 (40mm grenade launcher)
qualifications. Nothing like seeing an HE (High Explosive) round go
off on the top of a tank. grin

 Tank Owning Teen: Gee Dad, why can't I turn right and left smoothly
 like all my friends who have regular cars?

Turn? You don't turn in a tank. You run everything over! grin

 Security Dad: Documentation is a security risk.

Egads! Security through obscurity is no security at all.

Not at all.  I just recommend that people learn a bit about what
they're doing. Basically I suggest that people learn basic math
before using a calculator.  But people listen to marketing
first.  I only make suggestions when people are ready to listen.
 That's why I'm broke :)

Me too but only with those rounds that went with a poof of
purple smoke.  The live rounds were a...umm, security risk. :)
