You are right, Hunted.
One of the most important talents in life is to be able to joke about one's own mortality. Naissance, life,death--it's all one big thing. In my career I managed a group of traders and those are the craziest critters that ever walked the earth. Their uncerimonious joking, sometimes shocking, was simply a way of releiving stress. And so, we are here among a group of people that are in the IT industry and I'd wager to say the stress levels are often high. Things are changing, the challenges are daunting and so sometimes out humor becomes outrageous. I think I saw an age sampling of BetaOne some time ago. It's pretty wide. So there's a few generations here and they don't always see eye to eye. <heh heh>
Anyway. Good thread and good to see Angel Death back--if only briefly--at least he's checking in.
