Those of you who make your living through computers, especially if you have to deal with the general public in conjunction with your duties, are undoubtedly acquainted with the Tales from TCP Towers, and the original BOFH (archived at, among other places, http://www.xnet.com/~raven/BOFH.html ). I'd run across this site once before then lost the URL, but just in case you were suffering from withdrawal, the BOFH lives at http://www.networkweek.com/bofh.shtml with reports from the field as recent as this month! Yes, there is literature with lasting socially redeeming value on the 'net. Those of you who don't spend your days fighting computers, users and ridiculous requests, move along, there's nothing to see here. "What was your user name again?" <clickety-clickety>

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.
