...said tongue in cheek. I haven't stopped complaining that the system really doesn't work the way it's currently designed. Although I don't see why pointing out that the system doesn't work as designed should be considered "bellyaching" any more than telling a webmaster that their server is down is considered "bellyaching"! Agreed that the phone company considers that I am "bellyaching" when I call them to say that my phone service isn't working and then I tell them that *their* phone service isn't working either! [which typically takes about three hours because their queuing systems don't work either....]

Go, hyperbole! Repeatedly complaining about anything that works, but is too complex to work as designed, is bellyaching. DP is not down; it does work. It in fact works a heck of a lot better than originally designed. -- Kie ekzistas vivo, ekzistas espero.
