    Just remember, that if it wasn't for Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton, most of the ideas in Samba 4 would never have even been thought of, never mind implemented.

    It'd be nice if they gave him some credit somewhere instead of just blanking him out because he 'rocked the boat'.

      yeh, i'll accept that - both parts.

      i see patterns. i mean i SEE patterns. it freaks people out. especially those people who are insecure in their abilities and position.

      one thing i do have a lot of difficulty with when i fail to explain or get across a deep understanding of a complex topic.

      i find it particularly frustrating in areas where people are supposed to have the capabilities and expertise to cope with a certain level of complexity.

      but - basically - the one way to absolutely GUARANTEE to make me see pink mist is for you to be dishonest. whereever i find people being dishonest with themselves, me, or other people, i WILL go for the throat - without fail.

      and it gets me into difficulties. c'est la vie.
