Years ago I was teaching a Windows class to state employees when they discovered out school's machines still had solitare. They asked if they could bring in a floppy and copy the files. I thought of being hauled before a congressional panel for abetting civil servant's laziness, and told them it was too big to copy on one file. Illinois was saved from Solitare, only to be spawn Obama.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
