at the beginning of this year, when we had this same thread,
i coded an entire workflow of single-purpose components...

mercifully, the thread dribbled away, and i can't even recall
if i mentioned it, because i was glad all this misery stopped.

and now that it's been started again, i haven't mentioned it,
because i'm still hoping this current thread will die as well...
(y'all are not just sadists, it seems, you are also masochists.)

but perhaps i will show you what i've done the _next_ time
someone is foolhardy enough to bring up this b.s. again...

which i'm thinking should be right around june of next year.
