The US dollar has been steadily heading that way;-)
The thing is the pool isn't a stricly limited capacity. To some (huge) extent he's created a bigger pool. Of course, he then goes and squishes half the fishies in the pool through unfair business practices... but hey.:0)
Check out the philosophies of unlimited wealth etc.
When I was in school (Uni) I felt much the same. Sure, I'm a geek with social skills, but a geek nonetheless (coding since I was 5 on my Amstrad CPC6128 *sighs happy sighs*), and it was disappointing to me to see other people getting into it 'just for the money'.
Since I've started working, I barely touch my computer at home, except to check the occasional email. I'd much rather spend my time in the gym, or dancing, or performing.
The thing is though, when I talk to people whose work IS singing, or dancing, or acting, they're often no longer seeing it as a passion, but just a job. I suspect it's the nature of the beast. Something to do with the 'grass is always greener'?
When you're doing something for fun, it's fun. But one you're getting paid for it, and are at someone else's beck and call, it becomes a job.
Because modern phone switching technology is able to handle phone signals differently if they're carrying voice. Something to do with silence on the line.

I had a 'Wilson'. He kept me sane whilst I was stranded on the island. Now I use him when I'm debugging.
"... and goes a long way to explain their recent moves."
Moves, not movies
I didn't think there were/was any obscure philosophy, or particularly deep and meaningful messages in their recent movies that made explanations necessary, but then, I wondered if they'd just gone over my head.:-/
Well, I just went a googling to find a link to prove my claim (above), but a quick review found nothing. I'm sure I've seen those dialogs though!!
I DID find stories lamenting the lack of a button, but give the tip of holding down 'shift' while clicking No. Apparently this means 'No to All', but only works in XP (sorry 98 users).
Windows XP finally has a 'No To All' for a lot of these operations.
I danced the crazy-happy-dance when I saw it.
Also, some its dialogs have a checkbox with the meaning of "use this answer for the rest of the questions".
Sure, they're not consistent, but at least they've GOT them finally.
Still waiting on dialogs with verbs for buttons (ala Macs - 'Replace', 'Replace All', 'Don't Replace', 'Don't Replace All'), rather than the oft convoluted description of which button to click.

He's really trying to search for "Paris Hilton Video", but didn't want to admit it.
