Being a pain in the ass doesn't help, just as me calling you on the phone every day and saying "I don't care about the kids, Bill, just write the damn book!" would be a pointless pain in the rear as well. It wouldn't take you long at all, in fact, to dismiss me as a pest with a poor grasp of the time constraints people face, at which point I would simply go "Aha! Now you know how we feel about Brett!" Put the shoe on the other foot and think about it a little. Why should you be the only person permitted to cite time constraints as an excuse? We clearly don't get to do that if you accept the substance of Brett's arguments, so fair is fair. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
