    I am enjoying a lighthearted chuckle at your expense. I'm also thinking about writing up a 12-step program for you guys.

    12 Steps is likely not enough.

    They are like addicts.

    Always going to quit, but then right back at it.

    I would quit...but those meetings are just too much effort. 😀

    I have now found a new reason to continue feeding the trolls. It provides laughter for a fallen comrade. 😎

    Here is funny troll poem I found:

    The troll waits, snickering, under the house.

    He picks his nose and eats a mouse.

    He sratches his butt and sniffs his fingers

    (never shake hands with a troll. It lingers)

    What dastardly deeds does he plot?

    We remermber his methods, but forgot

    that he could pretend to be someone who

    is bright and writes like a goldurned noob.

    So be careful when you leaver your house

    don't forget to throw the troll a mouse;

    and wipe your feet because now and then

    you'll find troll droppings are geting 'tracked' in...

    Then just check in at a place like Hazelden.

    It might be a new way for them to branch out.

    Because once in while you think you see a light starting to go on. But then it flickers out again just as fast.

    Or maybe it was too dim to start with 😀

    I think it is the light from a passing car at night reflecting through a darkened room.

    On another note, I think I'm glad I don't have to support whatever code he is some how managing to put together with duct tape and baling wire.

    Unrelated question:

    Has anyone heard of a company called Kaseya? They apparently do IT software, user conferences, and webinars, but I can't find much more out about them - reviews, etc.- (unless my Googlefu just sucks today). They have some interesting webinars coming up that I'm tempted to take, but since I've never heard of them before today, I'm leary that this might just be another spam marketeer pimping their own products.

    http://www.kaseya.com/events/webinars.aspx

    Heard of them - have a client that uses them.

    Anything good? Anything bad?

    Or just heard of them?

    PM'd you - assuming that your inbox has been fixed.

    Actually, I think I need to work on my Won't Power. You know, I won't answer any more of that individuals questions. Obviously I am very weak in this area at the moment.

    In my best Obi-Wan voice...

    You will no longer help this individual...

    They do not need your help...

    Walk away as they are fine on their own..
