Must have abeen a boy. My 14 year old daughter is in a stage that I can't understand. I guess it could be best described as "I'm an adult and do everything and know everything, but still need to be taken care of" stage. But my 7.5 and 9 year old boys in the "messy guns are everything" stage.

That's still helping with development. You have to have testers or else they will never get the bugs squashed. One hey this doesn't look right is whining, that can be dismissed. Several people having the same issue means hey there's a bug here that needs to be looked at. Since when has not being a developer excluded you from being a beta tester?

I'm not discounting your points, but it seems he hit a nerve. He did mention that it was an ISP that he works for. Why is it OK for an ISP to allow everything through their network when it comes to other questionable traffic both from and thru their infrastructure but when it comes to spam it's off with their heads. Shouldn't it be all or nothing? If you want ISPs to not be filtering/blocking other information/data that we want, spam should be allowed as well right? I mean it's just data.

My HOA has/had a guy that was like that. He turned me in every other week because my Bermuda grass was too tall. I actually sat on the board because of him. I was put in charge of the architectural control and violations committees. I was able to get the rules that allowed him to be that way changed. We have some very good commonsense rules now. Such as no more than two live chickens can be kept on your property for more than 60 days. No parking in your yard for more than a week without giving the HOA a heads up. Mostly so if there is an actual problem we have a legal leg to stand on. Oh yeah "that Guy", he's now known throughout the sub-division as the angry fat man.
