Yes.. was thinking something like that when I compared Drupal and 
Wordpress on my own Apache box.  I did 11 years in heavy engineering 
where I found out that the world revolves around all kinds of cleverly 
designed engineering projects and software.  Just have to learn to 
live with what's out there.  

At least thanks to the open source software developers we have a 
choice now.  Wasn't like that back in 1995 when I did a B.Sc. in 
Chemistry and Geology.  Let's see.... there wuz winduhs 95 and winduhs 
95 and winduhs 95 Oh !  and .... winduhs 3.11.  Just for a change.  
Wouldn't like to repeat some of the conversations I had with some of 
the lecturers <holds head>
