You're joking, right?  As a Mathematics/Comuter Science major, I find
that utterly _appalling_.

whats wrong with that?
They tested students in the past on their chemistry knowledge  and
according to some Sodium Chloride was a green gas

But you are missing out on a tourist attraction, train some bears  and
get the tourists to visit them. Obviously wanting repeat visits you
cannot let those bears eat them (at least not all of them)
By the way a friend has an internet cafee and yesterday his internet
browser looked 'odd' he said.
Some smart visitor had switched him to the Russian character set...
They must have been trying to fix it for hours so when I visited  for
a refreshing beer it meant serious (g) work...

  Yes, this is the problem with people like Steve, they aren't
stupid,
just very irritating.  You have to balance if the information
received
is worth the anti-social behavior that generally accompanies it.
  I'd also like to note that from my experience a "Steve" ages very
well and becomes a considerable asset.  I can't wait!  8^)
  Generally speaking if a "Steve" does make some good points someone
that is willing to deal with his behavior will comment on it and the
rest of us will get the good parts without the bad parts via quoted
replies.
  Thank you for being willing to be that person.

  I agree, the more a program is based on hooks into the code and the
more modular the code the more customizable it will be and in general
the better the program will be accepted because it can be customized
to meet "my" needs.
