It appears that you are misquoting me; I did not say this.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I believe you've basically just said 'Doctor, doctor, it _hurts_ when
I do this.' I trust you know the punchline."<br>
<br>
While attempting to reduce a technical problem to a metaphorical, or
allegorical, description is sometimes useful, in this case it appears
to be more of an attempt to sidestep responsibility, than to accurately
depict the problem in a way so that everyone can understand it.<br>
<br>
That is, if you're saying "Don't use the service", you have a rather
indirect way of stating your mind ... leading me to wonder if you are
fearful to state your thoughts directly ... or if I have misunderstood
you ... or, perhaps, if you can only communicate through allegory, for
fear of being understood - which, in my mind, borders on a violation of
the social contract implicit in the use of a common syntax and lexicon.<br>
<br>
If you're not capable of responding to a technically accurate
description of what appears to be a technical problem with anything
other than hyperbole, then either it's not a -technical- problem ... or
... well, I trust you know the punchline.<br>

This is of potential interest to the many consultants who read this list.
Regrettably, my first submission of this information did not seem to get
propagated ... even though one would hope that it would be in
-everyone's- interest to see that junior members are mentored, on how to
analyze business contracts.
