To quote the great Steve Martin, "Well, Excuuuuuuuuuuuuse me!"

PM gets Hi, I want to do something that's really really easy to do with technology X, but without using technology X type questions all the time. If someone gives a really good reason to use technology X, than I'm gonna upvote him just for being helpful. All in all, it looks like a pretty good node do me. Lots of different ideas with a Merlyn column to wrap it up in a nice pretty bow.

BTW, if you really want to loose xp, you should check out thepen's node. I use it every now and then when I'm feeling the need for some monkly ritualistic self-flagulation.

update Just deducted 5 xp for misspelling self-flaggelation, as pointed out by Brother VSarkiss. OW!!!
