This is wrong. What the article intends to say is that people at the very ends of the bell curve are more likely to be men. People at the top are more likely to be women.

This is oversimplified. I wouldn't be surprised if even more intelligent men commit more crimes than average-intelligent women, since crime rates are associated with a bunch of other factors like aggression.

Instead of installing Cygwin, my former flatmate made a bunch of .bat scripts that mimicked ls, cat, etc. to some extent. In my eyes it was a bit silly, but every time I make a switch between Linux and Windows XP, I want to hug XP's graphical interface. I hate X11's paste buffers and its incessantly overconfigurable window management systems. You can call me "raised in the 1990s", but I just find those grey menus comforting. And the damn fakers at the other side of the pond can never get the pixels right in those XP look-alike themes for Metacity. Yours faithfully

...and just say "You can try." and smile. :-)

Whenever I've had to set up a forum on the 'net for some specific purpose, it always crosses my mind "Why don't I just set up NNTP, and then people can either use their own readers or a custom web interface?" and I always quit the idea once I realise how terrible the available UNIX implementations of nntpd are. It's a real pity.
