And the technical writer sees all of the engineer's
mistakes,
And overcome with weariness his hoary head he shakes.
For he knows that he will never get any useful changes
made,
And the %$# -at- ! engineer is promotable, and more dough
is paid.
On a slightly more serious note: Would the folks on
this list and the people who run the list server
please update their defintion files, run their virus
checkers, download and install the MS patches, et
cetera ad nauseating. Somebody who has my email
address in their address book also has the frabjapping
geflugesheimer "Blaster Worm" on their system. Every
day I have to delete at least seven or eight messages
with 154kB attachments and subject lines like
"Critical Network Update," and it is getting REALLY
old.
