Sadly I think this is just people adding complexity because, = 'that=E2=80=99s how Linux does it', and must be correct. Either that or = they desire complexity for familiarity; an even more chilling = possibility. I'm truly baffled. "Let us not trust the good people who developed this system to know what = they were doing. We are users with little systems development = experience, and clearly know more than them." At least that=E2=80=99s the message I'm getting from all of this... = downright disgraceful. >iru
