Yet you insist on shoving the entire toolbox down our throats every time
there's a task to be done, Donnie.

When the day comes that you actually answer a question without telling
the world that openacs, arsdigita, aolserver or whatever you want to call
it is the answer and saviour to everything from world peace to who cares
what else, I'll believe you answered a "question plainly". But that's
not likely to ever happen. And since you think that anything I've said
so far has been a flame I doubt you'd know one if it slapped you with a
trout.

One more thing, Donnie... ***PLONK***
