[Corion]: Meh :( I should stop giving "emergency" answers in the first reply so people have to first try the proper way of solving a problem :-(

[SuicideJunkie]: That's like mentioning "Here's a bunch of carpentry tips and advice, but if all else fails, you can make a doorway with dynamite." (two seconds and a rumbling boom later) "Hey, that works great!"

Above is a quote from the chatterbox that needs no further explanation. I am posting it as a meditation so that I or other monks can refer the The Dynamite Trick in a post or in chatter, and other monks can find out the meaning. I'm posting anonymously because the credit really goes to SuicideJunkie. Also thanks for SuicideJunkie for saving the exact quote on his homenode.
