Well... most of *them* are idiots too.
Scene from Paul's old job:
"Web" (tm) "Develeper" (tm): "I can't get FrontPage/DreamWeaver to work."
Paul: "Use vi and sftp."
"Web" (tm) "Develeper" (tm): "I don't know what vi is."
Paul: "Then why do you work here?"
And yes, I worked there until the company ceased to exist.
Why? Because it was a dot-bomb founded on dot-bomb beliefs and run by
people with dot-bomb sensibilities. They also "spammed" people, but that's
another story.
Later,
Paul

hole, *and* the pudding cup! -- Homer Simpson, Tree House of Horror XI
