P.S. - Steve, let me chime in in saying thanks for articles like this. Normally, I come to this site for technical insights (which you normally feature of course) but it's fun every now and then to take a break and discuss current issues with other technical minded people. I thought I'd mention this before we get the entry about "why are we wasting our time with non-tech stuff like this..."

I'll give the normal caveat that I don't always agree with everyone, but it's still interesting. 😎
