    And as the near immortal Lazarus Long once said, "A poet who reads his verse in public may have other nasty habits." The whole "left brain - right brain" concept has been thoroughly disproven BTW. http://www.plosone.org/article...

    Maybe they should have projected some extra traffic on sysadmin day. I hope their sysadmin didn't take the day off.
